Re: wappen von hamburg - aurora - faithfull - polar star xanadu
so i started with information sought on the aurora - never expecting to slot 5 days off searching for information - and boy i found a lot - and like most things got side tracked with the 2 other vessels next to her namely the tug fir and the coast guard ship chaleur- and off i was on another mission - and think i have exhausted those avenues to the full such is my life as a " voyager " on ship research - it never ends and i get lost in ships i would never have looked at in the first place - all due to a short news item on dstv..........

Hi Bryan.
It is so sad when one sees these lovely looking ships at the end of their life, especially when one sees the horrible ships of today.
