G'day Peter and bobcat, sorry to have to inform you but Jim crossed the bar last October. But it is good to see there are still who sailed with him or remember him, his wife Doris, currently in N.Z., often looks in and I know she will be very pleased with your postings. So thanks for that lads.:)
Hi Peter
I was on Maltese Prince around about 52 /53 - 2nd Eng - on the med run. Started 36 yrs at sea on the Norman Prince out of Manchester - all Med again, mostly army supplies out to Cyprus and Malta and citrus back to Liverpool.
Anyone around from those days?

Maltese Prince, Ocean Monarch, Queen of Bermuda. I would enjoy hearing from my old ship mates.
G'day James and welcome to the site. Do you by any chance have some dates to go with the ships you sailed on? If so and you care to list them there is a good chance someone out there will reemeber you. So sit back with a cold one and enjoy the voyage.
I was a cadet with you on the Samtredy and the Highland Prince and the Chinese Prince when you were 4/Off
