Wrong vessel Dierk - the one you quote was the Yorkshire Dry dock 1988 built one.

Hoofinch - 1964
 
Good morning Patrick, thanks again for the correction, guess should try to switch on my brain prior to posting :banghead: When built in 1988 couldn`t be the one you got in 1985.... deleted my post, couldn`t find the older one at Miramar.
