It has taken me a while to realise that Mick's BENMHOR seen in 1978 was:
BENMHOR (5073600), 7739gt, completed Barclay, Curle & Co., Whiteinch, Glasgow, 2-1956
1956 CITY OF COLOMBO - 1977 BENMHOR - BU Kaohsiung 9.3.79 [Yuen Steel Enterprise Co]
Whereas my BENMHOR seen in 1969 was her predecessor:
BENMHOR (5041451), 8370gt, completed Blyth DD & SB Co., Cowpen Quay, Blyth, 10-1949
1949 PENRITH CASTLE - 1952 BENMHOR - BU Kaohsiung 22.3.73 [Chin Tai Steel Enterprise Co Ltd]
