I have sailed with this ship out east numerous times, it was a very ugly ship to say the least, but it was capable of hauling a big load of fuel.
I was wondering if there is any truth to the stories that I always hear. The story of it being a civilian vessel which was then converted after the fact to a Naval supply ship. All my research so far indicates the complete opposite, that it was a naval design from the beginning. I have also read that it had a crew of 192? And our current Protecteur class are crewed at around 300?
Thanks
