Londonderry

Possibly...

IMO 6913120
1969, 199gt
Built by Rosslauer Werft, Rosslau (DDR)

Bibba
 

Looks very like a Norwegian build. However, it would seem that she was indeed German built in 1969 at Rosslau as stated in the earlier post.

Bibba
 

Very typical of small 199grt Norwegian coasters of some 20/40 years ago. Piloted many of them, usually stinking of fish meal!

Hi stuteman, robin hood and canalsider, thank you very much for your contributions

Miramar got nothing of her, Hans Rosenkranz got some more information on his site, as can be seen by clicking on the link:

I`ve found only some information about her sister ABBA here:

Dierk,

Good morning Leslie,

Will send Miramar an email regarding BIBBA, the link to the Rosslau shipyards seems to be "broken" too

Having to hurry now, don`t like being late on my job :eek:

Good morning from cold and wet Hamburg :hello:

Got a reply from Miramar, including the shipyard`s shiplist of Rosslauer Werft

As it is not yet updated on their site, made some screenshots ;)
