Can you fill me on the passage you refer to.
AMSA no longer have historical records available so could not search on the Aust Reg Ship number.
Trying to track down your Pacific adventures for the AWBF.

Just saw your message. I've been not checking this forum for a long time. You want to know about the passage from Darwin to Freemantle is that correct?
Let me know and I can fill you in. Thanks. John.

All your trips really, there is also a vague reference to a voyage to Hawaii, and as I can't search the AUST Ship number anymore (which I take was you) I would really appreciate any history you could give me as I am putting a few articles together about the boat.
Just message me and I can give you an email address to contact me directly.
Even if you wanted to sit down and just dictate a voice recording on a phone I can get it transcribed easily.
