How did they get it down to the Falkland islands?.

M.V. Forrest, Built at James W Cook Wivenhoe.Yard no.1349 and launched 6-9-1967.
Seen here in the Falkland's.

 The delivery crew stayed a number of weeks at the Park Hotel, visiting the yard and ship to familiarize them selves with the layout and engine controls and arrange stores etc. It took them 37 days to reach Port Stanley in the Falkland Islands

Wivenhoe memories collection.
Thanks to John Collins.
