SANTONA

Liverpool - 11 July 1967

SANTONA (5313268), Donaldson Line Holdings Ltd., Glasgow, 2215gt, completed 7-1959 by Hall, Russell & Co. Ltd., Aberdeen. 1974 MALDIVE TRADER (Maldives), damaged by stranding 1-1983, 1983 broken up.

The above completed in my own records so did not need to look in the Donaldson history (WSS)! However, must say I was quite surprised at the tonnage given for a four-hatch vessel, it increased to only 3218gt when second tonnage figures (varying depending on open or closed shelter-deck measurements) were shown several years later.
