Comment

I served on the Kanimbla in 1974 as a deck cadet where apart studying and from learning from the Bosun how to teach crew maintenance issues I loaded and unloaded our car deck in port. I experienced the joys of sailing across the Great Australian Bight from Melbourne to Fremantle in all weather conditions with the ship rolling like a bucket carrying full deck cargo. A period of my life that ended all too quickly but one I'll never forget.

I'd really love to know what happened to the ship post-ASP as I've found very little information on her
