SEIKO MARU (7211763), Japan, 10251gt, completed Kochi 4-1972
1972 SEIKO MARU - 1982 SEA HORSE - 1982 SAMBOW EXPERT
BU Pusan 8.86 [Korea Sg Demolition]

Tees Dock - 10 December 1975:

.... from which it can be seen her name on the ship was SEIKOU MARU.
However, she is in my records without that U and likewise Miramar render her as SEIKO so without looking back in old registers I can only imagine her name was wrongly transcribed at that time.

My friend, Les cheyne, confirms: Both the LLoyds 73/74 and Schell/Stark registers,(1972) have her listed with the "U "on the end.
