ORANJE II. Mirando el par es aide- de-camp del ter poorten Capitán A Zimmerman. El 28 de junio de 1941, después de un reacondicionamiento en el muelle cacatúa , el primer ministro Menzies izó una bandera de la Cruz Roja en el revestimiento holandés ORANJE Interesante...siempre se aprende estimado vagabu... y nada menos en nuestra posguerra...dos años después del Año de la Victoria... del generalito inculto y de voz chillona que quiso abolir nuestra lengua madre... y que aun andamos cojos... que quiso hacernos creer que fue el salvador de España... que lo nuestro fue tristemente una guerra civil entre hermanos... él debió marchar y no instalarse en el Palacio Real con su guardia mora...y ja ja ja... que se nombró él solito con su barriguita.... " Caudillo de España por la gracia de Dios" Corrupto como todos...Un fraternal beso sincero de afecto mi robador de corazones... " amigos para SIEMPRE"

"Launched July 27, 1862 in La Ciotat. First in a series of three identical vessels with MEINAM and LA BOURDONNAIS . Starts on the Levant, until 1865, and then opens the Shanghai-Yokohama line in 1865. In 1870-1871, he stays on the line of the Levant, and then returns to Marseille to be transformed (lengthening the hull, lengthening Abant forecastle, poop and installation of a roof derrère the mainmast, processing machines) . From 1873 he was assigned as stationary on adjacent lines of Madagascar and the Indian Ocean. In 1886 it is stationary on the Noumea-Sydney line. Sold in Sydney in December 1888 in the Co. Hon. JC Ellis and renamed JUBILEE before being profoundly transformed to liaise with Tasmania. sold in 1889 to JP Franki. Demolished in August 1898 in Sydney."

beachcomber australia Ooh always love to see a pic appear elsewhere, complete with historical discussion :) Interesting that DUPLEIX ended her days with us here in Australia.
