I often wonder what happened to the BULKNES, a sister of BLIDNES. She was engaged in trade between Gladstone (Aust) and Bluff (NZ) carrying bulk alumina from 1974 till about 1983 when she was replaced by TNT ALLTRANS.

Hi all
BLIDNES were scrapped in 90s. BULKNES as Fairfied says was ZHONG HAI at the end 2003 , but owners unknown . I have a good surprise for you: a B/W pic of my collection of BULKNES in Gibraltar road 1985 as KAPETAN ANTONIS !!! it is ok? |

Thank you Tanker, it is a brilliant photo. I see that her derricks were not "put back" after she left NZ/Aust waters. They were removed to increase her carrying capacity by 500 tons.
