Hi Den
Dont know if this is the one in question!??

The SS Oakland was launched in 1890 at the Murray Brothers shipyard in Dumbarton, Scotland (a very nice little town to the north of Glasgow). The Oakland was 47 metres long, had a beam of 7 metres and displaced 398 tons. The single screw steamship was powered by a triple expansion engine built by Kincaid and Co of Greenock, Scotland (just across the Clyde) and it had a single scotch boiler. She was also rigged as a fore and aft schooner

Cheers

Or is the more modern one ?

Thanks Vernon, but neither one [I ain't quite that old]
Thought it would be easy to find. Will keep trying.

I notice we dont have Furness Whithy Line on our ship company list.
I seem to remember that they changed their name. Think in the late 60ies.
Anyone know how I can find them?
Thanks.
Den.

Goes to show,one just has to persevere. The Internet has it all.
