I am looking for images of merchant ships for a project I am working on.
If anyone can help with a link to photos or similar it would really help.

Right now I am especially looking for small merchants and coastal merchants.

Google is not being very helpful.
Thankyou.

Hope you like it.

Meantime I must say that I like very much the "Cargo type Granville" witch is the most frequently showed in the old ww2 movies, with a vertical bow.

Search for Canadian, Swedish, Danish, and Norwegian ships - they had lots of small coastal types.
