Another first tripper
Hi everyone,
Found this site only this week, most informative and a great site for ex seamen/engineers like myself, I sailed with Ellerman Wilson in the 60,s then quite a few years with Shaw Saville sailed on the Alaric, Canopic Waiwera for 3 years and finished up on the Majestic the '' Ocean Greyhound as it was known.
I then joined Jebsens and sailed on the Saltnes Spraynes and Bulknes finished up on the North sea ships.
Some of the happiest times of my life looking back.
Rgds to all
Colin Lythe
