Re: Beautiful Port Line Ships
Hi Michael,
I agree they were beautiful ships. I was lucky enough to sail on the Port Nicholson for almost all of 1975 and we berthed in Hobart for apples. As it was a late harvest that year in Tasmania we were there for 8 weeks and had a great time. One of my shipmates (who became a life long friend) fell for a local girl from Hobart and married her in 1978 and settled in Aussie. I came back to Hobart and worked at the Risdon Zinc works fro about 6 months. Finally i visited again this year 2018 after 40 years on my retirement tour of Aussie and Kiwi. More later.
