What a magnificent pair of Engine Room Vents!

Never noticed them on the B/W Picture but they really stand out in colour!

Bet you say that to all of the girls :)
Nice to see more photos of this old lady, one of the small but essential craft often overlooked due to their familiarity.

50 YEARS AGO TODAY!

FRANCIS SAMUELSON at her (his) berth just off Dock Point, Middlesbrough Dock Cut, 28 August 1964
(I have always felt the sunlighting of this particular print to have an ethereal quality.)

One of the craft I never did a relief on although I had a look around her, coal fired Scotch Boiler and as I understood it her Triple Expansion was the same as those fitted in Smiths pre War Whalers. Can anybody confirm that please?
