S.A.LATEBA.

Think this should read ' S A Letaba '

Ahoy.
I believe indeed she should be read as S A LETABA

Correct S.A.LETABA built as LETABA with 4 sisterships S.A.DRAKENSTEIN-S.A.TZANEEN-S.A.HEXRIVIER and with smaller radar pole from bridge,S.A.LANGKLOOF.
Gp

S.A.ZEBEDIELA is one of the sisters. S.A.LANGKLOOF first name was LANGKLOOF later on renamed as S.A.LANGKLOOF.
regards B.J

LETABA and DRAKENSTEIN built by Scotts' at Greenock.

Langkloof,,Hexrivier and Zebediela built by
Verolme Heusden Netherlands at the sixties.

I was RO on the Langkloof when renamed S A Langkloof. She was laid down as the South African Farmer. You could see the outline on the bow if you looked close. I have photographs of the launch at Verolmes
