    Not a yacht. This was a Union Castle ship sailing under UC colours

    When someone gets the answer I will post a picture.

    Default Maltese owned Ship

    Would it be the Maltese owned Ship Paola C (ex Good Hope Castle) or could be Southampton Castle?

    Default Safmarine,

    Took over a ship named the M.S.TEAL In the 80s before selling her on i believe she sailed in U.C.L. Colours. Still in service today Regards Terry.

    Default Certainly not disputing your post mate

    Hi Terry
    Certainly not disputing your post mate ,but all i can find on the Teal is the following and it had no reference to UCL!
    But is still in service!
    Is this the same one at all?? Dont think so!
    Cheers

    LMS - British Railways - Sealink - Windermere "Teal(2)" of 1936

    Wonder if it may have been Teal the original,but cannot find it?
