Never get bored with showing people around :-><br />I will also take a look at your site and see where you get to on her history. There is a lot of info on the web. I was also contacted a week or so ago by someone who's father (now deceased) served on board. So will be contacting them soon.<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />SSo long and thanks for all the fishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08564998358302003157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4306192278648779966.post-50780562453040170642011-08-22T14:27:52.318-07:002011-08-22T14:27:52.318-07:00Hi there,

Instantly fascinated and not being able to suppress the urge to carry out some research, I soon found out she was Gannet – couldn’t see the stern from the jetty.<br /><br />I have tried to trace her history, and have published my findings here, a Forum on which I am a Moderator:<br /><br />http://www.worldnavalships.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1724498#post1724498<br /><br />Now totally hooked, I am looking forward to following the rest of this project, and am also tracing the careers of her sisters Osprey, Shearwater, Kittiwake and Skua<br /><br />With a an engineering background, and in particular electrical/electronic engineering I have been sympathetic to your musings and struggles with the power configuration options, and fully appreciate what you are trying to very sensibly achieve.<br /><br />It's a huge well done from me and I look forward to keeping up with future progress.Halley75https://www.blogger.com/profile/12355063869113852440noreply@blogger.com
