I would
like to congratulate you on the model of the Afric
Star. I sailed as Chief Engineer on her along
with her sister vessels, serving 32 years with the
Blue Star Line. Only one fault and that is the colour of the funnel, the top black band should be
divided by a white band. Other than that First
Class. Visit Blue Star line on the web at http://www.bluestarline.org/
