MV Royal Service
Whilst on leave Offshore Marine personnel manager would often call up to see if I was available for extra work as they were sometimes short of crew. Under these circumstances I joined the Royal Service on three different occasions spending up to two weeks on board at a time. The Royal Service and her sister ship the Regal Service were large pipe carriers supporting offshore pipe laying barges but also worked as regular supply vessels as well.
On board Royal Service:24-01-83 to 31-01-83 Aberdeen18-03-83 to 22-03-83 Dundee17-10-83 to 27-10-83 Peterhead
[…] Spent just a few days on the Regal Service for the same reasons as I spent time on the Royal Service. […]
