Leith Built Ships: JOSEPH FLINT

Monday 19 April 2010

JOSEPH FLINT

Ship No 243

The second in the order from United Africa Co, she was another twin screw motor cargo vessel, just a bit longer and heavier than her sister “A.A.Cowan”.

She was 320 tons and had a length overall of 136 feet and a beam of 24 feet.

She was launched from the yard 4 months before her sister ship on 10th August 1937.

I have been unable to find any photo’s of her as yet.
