    Post Jamaica planter

    I have recently unearthed my late father's voyage log for the Jamaica planter for April through to November 1940. He was Master mariner Jack L Sims. I am just curious to know if anyone still survives from this time on the forum. Many thanks for any help.

    Hi John.
    My son had to register me. Don't know what happened but I nor my son who is a bit of an expert could recover my log in details, so he had to use a different password, which got rid of all my details from my previous 25 years log in details, one thing I am now a newbie so the Ai,s in Canberra will have to start all over again, I will as well, as I have lost twenty five years of friends off my Avatar, including the Avatar itself.
    Thanks for the help with your emails, I was knocked out and stuffed so couldn't answer all of them.
    Thanks Des
