Waxing sentimental Fairsky 1971 - Roll Call

[1971fairsky]

It works for schoolfriends Reunited, so these boards must also work for folks who are sentimental about time adrift on the ocean. Well, if we ever get a dozen folks together, it might be time for a reunion. I have great memories of the Fairsky departing Southhampton in 1971 for Australia. Anybody else nostalgic about those six weeks aboard the sunny Fairsky? :)

You may want to try posting on the "What ever happened to...." board. There's already a long thread about the old Sitmar line. That's where I first started cruising back in the 1970s.....

thanks.

when I did look over on the 'what happen to?' site,

I saw reference to a later ship called 'Fairsky' operating in the '80s.

I was thinking of an earlier Fairsky that sailed between UK and Australia

from around 1958 to 1971, which continued for a little while in the Mediterranean before she burned out.
