Centenary marked

摘要

To mark the centenary of the founding of the Ramsey Steamship Co, the company's small coaster Ben Maye (1979/548grt) was dressed overall for a commemorative charter voyage marking another event that took place in 1913. The Bideford-built ship docked in Dublin's Docklands on 5 October 2013 to re-enact the role of the steamer Hare, which undertook a voyage 100 years ago from Liverpool to bring food supplied by the TUC to thousands of striking workers in an event known as the Lockout of 1913.
