Synopsis

The authors have served in both Fishery Support Ships Orsino and Miranda, operated by the Board of Trade following the trawler losses in 1968.

They describe the history of the British Mission Ships first operated 90 years ago, as well as the origins of the Dutch and Portuguese services.

A detailed description is given of the events leading up to, and some experiences of, the present British service.

Finally, an account is presented of the services provided by some other maritime powers.
