    3. Hi Friends. Sorry to disturb you with my bad english, the school is far now alas, and please excuse me. Who could help me to confirm details about this LST 3030 with a unique life after the World War II? LST 3030 built by Hall, Russel & Co – Aberdeen She was completed and for a small time HMS LST with the Royal Navy before converted in a floating herring oil factory or not? So completed as a mercantile ship because the work was interrupted. The work was at Stord after a towing from Newcastle, why? when? for a long time? The Norwegian owner was Bartz-Johannessen which renamed the LST 3030 CLUPEA. She was sold to a french owner in the beginning of 1961, do you know the date? and converted in a fish congelator factory ship before the new short life with French flag or Mauretanian flag because the home port was Port Etienne? I am looking also about photos. Cheers Yves from France
