Carebeka's coaster RIAN in 1953
In December 1953 the Carebeka’s Groningen registered coaster RIAN arrived at Ardrossan Harbour from Hamburg. The handwriting in the Harbour Log-book is not easy to read. The master’s name could be Cloinga or Eloinga : can any Netherlands reader tell what the name is ? Also the cargo is shown as “M of Potash” …. What is “M of Potash” ??? |
