12/11/2005 - 03:31 Kees, I stumbled across your site earlier today while googling around, and I've got to say "Well done!" It's excellent. I started with STUK as a deck cadet in 1968 on Volvatella and worked through to Captain, and then Navigation Superintendent, before coming to New Jersey as a Marine Advisor to Shell USA in 2002. Here I still am. I'll add my name to ships, such as Lima, Hatasia, Lampas etc. Keep it up! Geoff Donnelly
