Looking a bit dated compared to some of the new ships about' I remember trying my hardest to get on these ships' from the Dover pool' but ended up on a Chilian chartered ship non federated,
Did my last deep sea trip on the Kowloon Bay ( did 2 voyages a few years previous ) Yes she did ground in the Mallaca Straits, did a lot of damage. They were great ships, superbly well built, a great credit to the designers and the German yard that built them.

Yeah, she's the one that ran aground on Rhondo Island. The OOW at the time then got offered a job by Smits (I think?) who were the salvage company who did the initial towing down to Singapore.
