    Default Hello

    Thanks for allowing me to join. Sailed on BP tankers, MV British Kiwi 1967/68 SS British Dragoon. 1968/69 which sank while tied up in Kwinana West Australia. Also sailed on MV Port Melbourne 1971 ish. Worked as galley boy, pantry boy and assistant steward. Pretty much sailed the world as Kiwi was a tramp. Skipper was R.L. Dunn. Ended up emmigrating to Australia as we spent 6 months there after sinking, made relationships.
