I enjoyed last nights film on the above ship and have been looking on the web for further details. The engines were built by Grenaa Diesels in Denmark who are still in business. If you look at www.grma.dk at the bottom right of their home page is a photo of Balmoral. Mathway Marine who’s name was on the steering gear have now been incorporated into Parsons Marine. They are also still in business see www.parsonsmathwaymarine.co.uk. Finally if you liked the music in the harbour festival at the end then www.jigbadwolf.co.uk is for you, under the “sounds” button there are snippets of about a dozen of their tunes you can listen to. Happy browsing. David Ward.

Thanks for the info David, it was a fascinating film. I’m looking forward to sailing in the Balmoral once again in the near future hopefully, fingers crossed.
