Can anyone help me with information about the collision between T&J Harrisons Geologist,and the Liberian Ship Sunprincess.I believe that It happened off the Coast of Trinidad in 1955 and that 20 Seamen lost there lives in the collision.
I am asking because a friend of mine lost his Cousin who was 3rd mate on the Geologist,and has asked me for help after me telling him about this site
Thanks if you can help Lads

Thank's to Vic Pitcher for the tale of the second mate of the Sunprincess.How on Earth could he Contemplate going back to Sea and especially standing a Bridge Watch ,Knowing that he had the guilt of 20 Seamans lives to live with through being drunk on watch
I will try and get a copy of the Book Harrisons of Liverpool having sailed on 5 Harrison boats
