In 1971 this Bibby ore/oil carrier suffered an explosion which sadly cost the life of her Master.She arrived in Greenock in October to enter the Firth of Clyde Drydock for repairs which lasted approx.one year.
These shots show the damage and the repair work under way.
In later years she actually came back to the Clyde and was laid up.She received a traditional Bibby Line name in due course before sale and eventual scrapping.
