Comments

The ship is flying a Swire house flag, and might be 'Hanyang' (1940 - 1964). There were several similar ships, with some displaying the ship's name next to the Union Jack, but other photographs show 'Hanyang' with the flag only. Whichever ship she is she looks immaculate, so probably just out of drydock.
