Sorlandet

What we know about this image :

This slightly fuzzy image is believed to be of the sail training ship Sorlandet, built in Norway in 1927, but which made regular visits to the town during the late 1950s-early 1960s. Here She is berthed at Kinbergs Quays, with the Coal Dock coal drops in the background.
She was fitted with an auxilliary diesel engine in 1959, and was re-engined in 1980.
