Best & Worst

[Charlie Hannah]

My brother sailed on the Arakaka, just like that Charlie. could only do one trip or would have turned alky.
It was under sail across the western he said.

That's correct Brian she had a steerage sail had to rig the derriks on no4 hatch to use it.called out a couple times while i was on her to do it.

Loved my time with Blue Start to be honest. I must be strange! 15 months from joining till getting back to UK (DBS on the ACT 1). Ten months in all on the ship and got £26 eventually from Blue Star. Worst ship would have been my first one after that, Oakworth, one of Dalglish's. Chief Steward hated me from the moment I walked on. Crew was all off the Belfast pool, half Kafflick, half proddy and fought the whole time. :-) Cannot for the life of me remember any bad feeders, especially after I went into the galley :-)

My worst ship was the Charlotte Schliemann for every thing
