"Dunera" anchors off Ardrossan - two children taken to the ship by pilot boat

From "The Ardrossan & Saltcoats Herald" dated Friday 17th July 1964

With 600 Scottish school children on board, the "Dunera," on its way to Gibraltar, made an unscheduled call last Friday evening when she anchored off Ardrossan to allow two Norwegian children who had missed the boat when it sailed from Greenock earlier in the day, to be brought on board.
The children were taken out in the pilot boat.
