Here are some old photos from the 50s.
No.1 In 1959 on the Good Hope Castle, Me at the top of the Top Mast fixing a new main mast Navigation light.
My mate Ted is on the `table` below me. Ted and I went to school together and sailed for a few years together. I saw him last week and he is dying of leaukemia.
No.2 In 1956 on the Corrales, a Fyffes banana boat, off the coast of West Africa, with a shark we had caught. Wish I was as fit now as I was then.
No.3. In 1957 on the Adelaide Star in the Southern Ocean, bound for Australia, with a Flying fish that had decided to join us by flying onboard.
