Harpagus J&C Harrisons of London
Sailed 16 months on Hartington as 3rd mate. One of my most enjoyable voyages on a very happy ship, it's all down to those on board.

You are so right. At the risk of being controversial , although I sailed 7 years with BI and Bullard King, I must say that a white crew ship were we all got on was second to none. I say this as one who has been in every rating from "peggy" to "The Mate" Dave

Harpalion
One of my favourite voyages was on the Harpalion when she was almost new. A good company, terrific ship, wonderful crew and very interesting voyage. Not, though, the kind of trip that would make interesting stories. No, the best yarns come from the worst ships, the hungriest ships, the hardest ships and the most unpleasant crews.
