Henry Robb, Leith 1959 for Blyth Harbour Commission.
374 Gross. 384 Dwt. 10 Knots.
Sold 1990 to Atlantic Salvage SA, Panama.
She's lying at McNulty's Yard at South Shields.
Now this is where it gets interesting...........
There is a note on another site posted by John King saying that he bought her for £12,000 in 1992?? and steamed her down to Lowestoft where he tried to sell her as a going concern. However there were no buyers and she was broken up at the old Brooke Marine Yard.
