Some one else pointed this out on the very long running thread on
www.shipsnostalgia.com and someone else came up with the comment about poor steerageway when running on minimum revs.
However a posting from a chap who had worked on her as CE for a number of years pointed out that it was in fact just the opposite, and that she had very good steerage at all speeds for her length/ beam ratio.
If anyone has the time, that thread is well worth the read, but at nearly 1000 postings on the thread with many many photos,( and some of incredible imagry) it might take you a while. It's on the News and views section of the site.page 3.
