Safety Patrol 1

Shauno,

I can see you are an old doodlebugger.
Boon is now using the vessel as a ferry between Gabon, Libreville and ports on west coast of Africa. Mainly Cotonou, Benin and Lome, Togo.

Last I heard Boon was living on the vessel and operating with African crew.

Many thanks Lochluichart just curious what happened to her and the rest of his fleet as i once worked for him on this vessel and the others he ran

Don't know if you interested but I also heard that the Marie Louise 2 was tied up in Malta.
But that was a long time ago and suspect she now scrapped.
Boon is now out of the seismic business and I don't see him getting back in.

Cheers

thanks for the info if i sm right in thinking she has been there ever since my father left her there and i agree with you on that boon wont be back into the seismic game no more..!!!
you didnt by chance work for him did you ?

 

[lochluichart]

Negative on working for him.
I was a PC for Western and now rep for PGS, so I guess he wroked for me.
I suspect I worked with your father in Egypt with ML2.
Is his name Glynn by any chance?

Cheers

 

[shauno]

yeah that was the last time he worked on the ML2 and yes his name is glyn

 

[lochluichart]

Shauno,

Give him my regards.
Just tell him it was Bob and the Stella tastes the same.
Cheers

 

[shauno]

i will next time i speak to him Bob.

Shauno,

Tell your father I'll be in Port Said next week and will have a Stella or two for him in the Korean Bar.

Cheers
