Apropos nothing much, I thought you folks might like to take a look at these beauties. Look here http://www.bkyc.de/html/pre_plastic.html
Ragna R is still going strong out of St Katharine Dock in London and Flamingo from BKYC in Kiel. Some of the others still around but details uncertain. Info invited from those who know. /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Had the pleasure of sailing on Ragna R from Kiel to Arendal in Norway and then down the coast to Kristiansand back in '78. Fond memories !
