WHICH SHIP?

Post by geosub1978 » Sun Feb 20, 2022 10:09 am

Hello!

Can anyone possibly identify this ship?

It is mentioned as the 1938 norwegian MV Rigel but it is certainly not. There is a "T" on the funnel. It is not the TRANSCOMAR steamer Rigel either

Hello,

According with the Merchant Ship - 1942 edit by Talbot, this funne was the funnel of the Trelleborgs Anginya Aktieb (J. Malmros, Mgr) of Trelleborg (Sweden).

In the Lloyd of 1939, a ship named Rigel belong to this company :
Delivered in 11/1936 by Deutsche Werft of Hamburg - GRT : 977 - NRT : 525 - 205.0 x 32.3 x 15.1 - one oil engine MAN of 161 NHP and the mention "carrying Petroleum in Bulk".
