Fantastic site, brings it all flooding back. I
must have done something wrong, cos I sailed on
the Belhaven x 3, Race x 3, Renfrew, Howe,
Maclay, Inchcape, Kinnaird, Grafton etc etc!! as
Cadet 1976- 3rd Mate 1985. Tried a few coastal
jobs, including North Sea (those guys are mad!)
and a really really boring trip on a huge
container boat. Started in business, became an
auctioneer, got bored and , thanks to many happy
trips down here, emigrated and bought a Motel
here in the Fantastic Bay of Islands, 60km north
of Whangarei.
I'd love to hear from any old ship mates, so I
can bore my family stupid with my endless tales
of adventure!!! |

I had heard about this site and finally got
around to browsing through it.
I sailed with SSM as GP1 from August '74 to
January '76 onboard Baron Renfrew, Cape
Grenville and Cape Leeuwin. Still at sea and
sailing as mate with Northlink Ferries.
Have many happy memories of my time with SSM,
especially regarding the Grenville. |
