    Hello.
    My Father Peter McCarthy was a deck cadet/Officer during WW2. I think his first ship was Trevalgan.He told me a few tales of his time there but left no details of his trips. He left to go to Furness Withy in the late forties/early fifties then on to the RFA where he became a master in 1962,retiring in 1983. I am still at sea as a Chief Engineer but life is poor compared to this previous age.
    Best wishes,
    Brian McCarthy

    Wondered if the house flags at the link were usable, may have interest for 2 T.shirts.

    Finally got to the museum in St Ives today after 2 previous attempts , and to the Hains steamship room. Saw a photo of my old ship, she started life as Harpagus, and the front section was blown off by a mine in 1944 in the approaches to Arromanches, the stern section was towed to Southampton, and thence to the Tyne, a 190 ft section was bolted on and sold to Hains as the Treworlas. I joined the Treworlas in 1958 in the glorious rank of Peggy!. She was finally grounded on a reef in the Red Sea somewhere, and became a total loss in 1960. Quite a chequered career , kt
