Hello my name is Tim, I have joined this site on behalf of my father, William Henry Croft born 1932 in Fleetwood Lancashire, he served in the Merchant Navy from 1948 to 1954 between those years he had served on various vessels mainly oil tankers I think,
I have been trying to research the ships on hopping to get the history and photos of them for him.
All of the above details were filled in by Bill's son
