Hi Magoonigal, are you sure that the yard number is correct, as the first ship built by the new Swan Hunter Shipbuilders started in 1968 was number 1 the Atlantic Conveyor and prior to closing in 1994 they never reached No1488? Micky

Read the wrong line on Miramar, Micky.

'1488' is the Swans Link on Miramar!
Of course its 72!

:D
