She stayed in service until 1990! Although the first intention to put her out o service dates from 1948. However the Navy Yard needed a vessel to generate and supply heat for the vessels in dock. She stayed on until 1990. After decommision she's been completely restored, including her steam boilers. You can check: http://www.y8122.nl/ it has the option to translate in english with google. Hope the translations will turn out to be readable in english. If you have any questions let me know. Jeroen |
