Completed as SUNMAPLE for a Sagueney charter and later became the livestock carrier CLARA CLAUSEN.
I think there was another MAPLE did a one off voyage to Alcan in the late 1970s, I have a blurred pic, only had a small camera which did 4" square prints but may be wrong. Remember her as having a bright green hull with buff coloured superstructure and lots of derricks.
Nice set by the way Dennis

She appears to be the only MAPLE of that size around in the late 70's.

The off-centre MAPLE does suggest that she once had SUN before it.
