Hi All,
Anyone sail on the Hopecrag,I joined her at the tail of the bank on her maiden voyage,Baton Rouge,to Japan-Kobe,back to Baton Rouge -Japan,on to Stdney,nice ship,we lost the steward in Yokohama,he was found floating in the dock,very tragic,I think his name was Hughie Gallacher,he was around 45,Sulzer engine but it was a very memorable trip for me,it was my first trip to sea,would love to hear from anyone who remembers me.
