I attended PWSTS in 1960/61
On leaving PWSTS Dover, I was assigned to the Port of London's KG5 Pool /
Register & through them, I signed up to Port Line's "MV Port Quebec" as a Deck
Boy. I joined the whole replacement crew in the Sailors Society Building, in
Limehouse , London & we all flew out from Heathrow, to Canadian Vickers Dry
Dock, in Montreal, Canada, where we left on a 2 year voyage (MANZ run
Montreal-America-Australia-New Zealand). I signed off 2 years later as a man in
Liverpool UK. I then joined Blue Star Line's reefer vessel "MV Brazil Star" on
several voyages to South America i.e. Venezuela, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay &
Argentina etc...I then took my EDH & Lifeboat Certificate at St. Katharine Dock,
London. I then joined Shaw Saville Line on the Africa runs. I have lost my
Seaman's Book / Records etc & I don't know how I can get obtain replacements /
copy's etc! Appreciate any info / contacts & photo's re the above.
I can be contacted or view my profiles through LinkedIn or on Facebook.
Thanks,
Colin Champness.
