Thanks for this one Michael, I remember seeing her off the Tees maybe early 1960's, as she accompanied the huge Dutch herring fleet moving down the coast.
Rather incredibly, she is still in service!
1955, 298grt by Zaanlandse Scheepsbouw, Zaandam (462) as a hospital/church ship .... carried her own church organ!
