FRANCE-Ocean Terminal-Feb-1974

Ocean Terminal [1966- ]

At the time of its construction the FRANCE was claimed to be the longest ship in the world.

Initially built as an Atlantic liner, like many other such ships it was downgraded to cruising.

It made only one visit to Hong Kong where I photographed it in February 1974.

It later became the NORWAY. But due to a boiler explosion that killed several crew, it was eventually scrapped, but only as late as 2008.

SS 'Keong Wai'. 2 decked Steel screw steamer of 1777 tons Gross wt. built by Fairfield and Co of Glasgow. Owned by Scottish and Oriental SS Co from new in 1895 until 1899 when she was sold to Norddeutche Lloyd of Bremen and became a German registered ship. Richard Unsworth is shown as her Master from 1895 to 1901 and he could have remained as Master if he had taken German nationality, but he firmly declined and took a shore job in Hong Kong.
