Note the progress made by the crew in refurbishing the bridge..Mahogany cabs in the wings of the bridge have replaced wartime gun emplacements..
On left a bumboat man displays his wares..I bought a month old puppy from him..

With a cargo of bagged flour from Montreal for Capetown we were 51 days at sea
due to constant engine failures.
In photo we were at Las Palmas and taking coal bunkers.
