Gibbs & Zoon, Dordrecht
« on: June 24, 2011, 10:29:56 PM »
As I know there is several shipspotters from The Netherlands here, I have submitted a photo of a really oldtimer from a Dutch yard.
The live-fish carrier LYDIA was built at a shipyard called Gibbs & Zoon at Dordrecht in 1896, which mean that she is 115 years old.
Well, she was ofcourse not built as a live-fish carrier, she have had several rebuildings, but I find it very impresive that she is still sailing, and also that she is in such a good shape,with all certificates up to date.
Just search for LYDIA, or go into the live-fish carrier section. (Don't know how to make a link)
