 Hi to All.
Just thinking on my first Ship the Dunnottar Castle.
I was fortunate enough to do the last trip on her under the Union Castle Colours 1958 ,after which she was sold to Incres S.S. Co., Monrovia.and had many years service as Victoria,The Victoria,Princess Victoria with other Companies as well.
The reason for this post is to ask if anyone knows of other Vessels that stayed in Service as long as she did,with any owners!
The Dunnottar was launched on 25.01.1936
And eventually Departed Eleusis for demolition in Alang,on the 04.05.2004 (she was laid up for 2 years from 2002/2004) so that means she had 66 years actual Service as Passenger Carrier.
Cheers and thanks
Vernon
