Hi Jennifer, wonderful picture of my first ship, I was a deck boy on her last voyage with Shaw Saville/Royal Mail 1977, traded between England & New Zealand, she went to the Greeks summer 1977. I need to get a photo of her but having trouble printing, any suggestions?

Gerolf,
I agree - she is a classic gracefully designed post war cargo/passenger ship. Royal Mail lines traded mostly between UK ports and South America.
