Falmouth Layups
Does any one have access to an officoal list of Lay ups in the Fal? I was 4/O on Blue Flue ex Empire boat MEDON, when we laid her up there. My Dicharge Book shows 23 Nov 1961, yet all histories I have seen show 1962 !
I tried email to harbourmaster some years ago but no response.
Cheers Dave G

Re: Falmouth Layups
Have you tried the Guildhall Library London for the Voyage Record Card. (Empire Splendour) Medon.
They should have the Card for the Year in Question.
Worth an Email to them
Cheers
