I was mate on the Doris 1 Tanker in 81 when working for FT Everard, then transfered to the PL Trader as mate, then relief master, 09=07=81 to 24=10=81 then the regular master returned, i stayed on her as mate 4 some time after that mostly on the Rotterdam, Antwerp, Bow Creek, with veg oil, hard worker she was as the boiler was not up to heating all Tks in one go @ the time, hence we hat to dig out the butter from under the coils, until I asked the C Eng if he can put some gate valve on the ring line so we could wash back with hot oil, it worked but with less digging out..
