    Smile Ex Port Line ACT1 -2 -5

    Joined Port Nicholson in Belfast late 1966 as a D/boy and sailed on her and other Port line vessels until 1970 when i joined ACT 1 in Antwerp
    Frank Butler was bosun at the time and an easy man to get along with
    Anyone know the whereabouts of George Sutherland and his mate Eddie they were on the Port New Plymouth and the ACT2

    Default Ex Port Line

    Hi Calum. Spent a many happy years with Port Line, starting from Galley Boy, and finishing up as Second Steward. I was on the Port Nicholson from 2nd Febuary - 19th August 1966. I would class the Port Nicholson as the best ship that I have sailed on ( and there are a few ) Welcome to the site and enjoy yourself. Take care....... Terry
