The Oceans

http://fortships.tripod.com/oceans.htm

Ocean Valour as Heronspool. Photograph courtesy of Edward Reah. The 'Ocean' vessels differed from the Canadian 'Forts' and 'Parks' in that they were of a welded construction. Welding saved weight due to the elimination of plate overlaps and rivets. Another advantage was minimal surface friction, bringing economies in fuel consumption. However, a significant disadvantage was that a number of these welded ships developed major fractures. Seventeen out of the sixty 'Ocean' ships were lost during WW2. Todd-B...

Introduction

http://fortships.tripod.com/introduction.htm

Types of 'Fort' and 'Park' Ships. Burrard Dry Dock's 100th ship. The Mission toured a number of shipbuilding and engineering works and orders were placed and contracts signed for sixty 'Ocean' class vessels to be built in two U.S. yards. Thirty of the vessels were built on the West Coast at Richmond, California and thirty on the East coast at Portland, Maine. All of these 'Ocean' vessels were paid for and owned by the British Government. Of 'Fort' and 'Park' Ships. Many thanks to Maureen Venzi.

There are other sites which give advice and information on researching seafaring ancestors and ships. Below is my list of recommended web sites:. Sites with particular reference to 'Fort', 'Park' or 'Ocean' Ships. Allied Merchant Seamen of WW2. Includes an interesting article on the Fort Crevier and the Fort Stikine disaster.

The Chartroom on a ship is the domain of the navigating officer and the home of the charts, nautical tables and other reference books required to ensure that the ship travels quickly and safely between ports of call. With today's modern navigating aids the sextant may have disappeared but you will still see a large chart table on which there will be parallel rulers and dividers to plot courses and measure distances.
