MV Treloske

[Emily Kennard]

Does anyone have any information about MV Trelosk/Treloske that went from Liverpool to Sydney in 1953? I am trying to find out some more information as my husband has a picture that belonged to his grandad of this ship. Can’t find anything on Google and that is all the information I have. Thanks

[COLOR=var(--cali-text-primary)]#1 [COLOR=var(--cali-text-secondary)]·[/COLOR] Oct 28, 2006I came across my fathers Discharge Book and would like to find out a bit more about his life at sea and the ships he was on and the trips he went on.

Hi Emily.
I was on the Trevose for two years from 1949 the Tre boats belonged to the Hain Steamship Co, I believe that they have a museum in Cornwall. They mostly traded to India and Australia, where trampers mainly, I have a picture somewhere going under the Sydney Harbour Bridge, someone used to take pictures and sell them to the crew.

Emily.
As you can see most of the Tre boats looked the same, this is the Trevose.

I think that would be Capt Carlsen of the 'Flying Enterprise' Cappy but the old memory isn't what it used to be, the 'Turmoil' was the rescue tug

[j.sabourn]

The Flying Enterprise 11 with the same master captain Carlsen was in the seaman’s Club in Bombay the same time as me in the 50s. The mate off the Turmoil jumped on board to join him before they hit the 100 fathom line off Landsend . When over the 100 fathom line I suspect the shorter running sea was the cause of her final death throes. Carlsen went on in later life to drive a tourist boat around San Francisco harbour. Dancy off the Turmoil was later drowned off a later ship a long time after. There was no mystery why Carlsen stayed on the FE. 1. As the tabloids would have it , it was his job to stay on board to negotiate salvage terms. If he had left the ship was up for grabs as previously discussed . Cheers JS
The Turmoil to my knowledge was a naval tug. JS….
