HI Art.
At least you have them mate, The UK went from around 3,000 to a few coasters, even Aus had what we used to call the Iron boats carrying ore around the place, and passenger boats around the coast and up the islands. Mind you everyone goes by planes these days; and they wonder how come the world is stuffing up.
