Port of Calcutta

The Port of Calcutta was to order only one ship from the Leith Shipyards of Henry Robb, but what a fine looking ship she was.

(They did also order a grab Dredger, prior to this order so perhaps they liked what the saw in the Grab Dredger No1)

The Motor Vessel TRIBENI was built as a survey ship, and she was to look more like a super yacht that you would be blessed to have at your disposal today.
