also http://www.shipsnostalgia.com/gallery/search.p hp?searchid=58480 but you'll have to register to get enlarged versions of the photographs. This site mentions that the ship was sold to Japan in the 1970s. There is at least one other website recounting how the sole survivor of a sinking was taken to the "hospital" on board the Southern Harvester to recuperate. On that basis the first photographs in this thread are of ships (probably catchers) which are too small and too old to be the present day Southern Harvester.
