Description:

ARAB HIND was photographed southbound in the Suez Canal passing Port Tewfik in April 1996.

Built in 1965 at Burntisland for Furness Withy as NOVA SCOTIA, she initially became TROPIC in 1973 on Shaw Savill service, reverting to NOVA SCOTIA in 1974.

She again became TROPIC in 1976 before being sold to Booker in 1978, becoming BOOKER VALIANT

In 1980 she was sold to Saudi Arabian interests to become ARAB DABBOR, then in 1986 ARAB HIND

She eventually arrived at Alang on 12.3.98 to be scrapped
