    Hi Den.
    You were right about the pay, it was nought compared to the times we had. Biggest payoff from a British ship, did a trip on a tanker 11 months away, 11 days in port, and payed off with 108pounds 19sillings and 8 and a half pence, I think I might have been able to buy a pint with the 8pence. But as the song goes, "Oh Happy Days".

    Lewis you may well be correct there about ship sizes now.
    Small ships on coastal but my impression was Den spoke of deep sea ships and though some smaller ones may well do that around this neck of the woods we never see such.
