REFRIGERATED SHIPS
Unknown reefer photographed in Panama in 1968 - - -
This banana reefer I photographed in Panama in 1968, - but unfortunately I do not know it's name, and cannot - at the moment - fiond any details about it - - -
However, - the ship side is marked with: "FLOTA BANANERA EQUATORIANA SA" - which probably is a reference to the company who owns/operates it?
