A cargo vessel.

Clue: Was owned by a parent company based in London.

Just general cargo and there were containers added on top of the hatches when the holds were full.

Clue: Built in 76

Not Femis but the company name had an association with money.

Clue: 'Shipping Ltd. was the parent company in London that owned and operated the **** ****'

Definitely connect to finance in name only.

Clue: Looking at the previous clue, 'Shipping Ltd' is preceded by the name of an individual and the ship was operated by **** Line.

Is this ship still in existence?

Jimbuna 11-10-20 12:04 PM

Broken up in 99

Aktungbby 11-10-20 12:06 PM

of British registry?..as opposed to say Panamanian, Greek, etc.

Jimbuna 11-10-20 12:09 PM

Originally British but ended her days under Greek registration.
