Photo: anchored in the Thames off Gravesend. When ships anchored here it was often because they had a problem. As I remember it, this one was stopped here to inspect damage sustained by colliding with one of the piers of the Thames Barrier at Woolwich, which was still under construction at the time.
Note the P&O house flag, suggesting that they were the charterers of the former LOF ship.
