P.S. To the copyright editor,
I just wanted to say that I retyped the Ship name and transcribed the above info from the images. I do it like this because (other than the copyright issues) the images often give different details than the online transcriptions. I have amended my post to explain this.
Thanks for your PM.

Regards,
Daisy
