Ship No 401

Was for a dumb hopper barge built for Christian Salvesen & Co Sth Gorgia


She was 60 tons with a length overall of 57 feet and 6 inches with a beam of 8 feet. She was put to work in the waters of The Islands of South Gorgia, even further South than the Falkland Islands and interestingly the port on the Island is in fact named Leith.
