Sorry to hear, Jim. From what I heard the people on board were all a great bunch; very competent and well-liked. I found a web page with a tribute to several of the crew, including one of the wives; since there were only two women on board that may have been her. I will pass the link on to you if I find it again.

Reading your link made me quite emotional and brought back sad distant memories. At the time she (Derbyshire) was lost I was a marine engineer with Bank Line/Andrew Weir.

Appreciate the link
