Default 1978 - More memories of working in a shipyard #4 - scan-1978-Sunship_booklet-04-Edit.jpg [1/1]

Here are scanned pages from a pamphlet that was originally published
as a magazine article about the Sun Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company.

I was working at the shipyard at this time, in the Mechanical
Maintenance (84) department. I've worked the linear launches as part
of the hydraulic team (which literally pushed the ship on rollers onto
the floating dry dock), and also worked on the dry dock pretty much
full time at this point, and on the cranes.




Good stuff. I enjoy hearing about other
people's work experiences.
