Hi Dave, How did you find the 'K' Boats - I spent 1 trip on the 'Katha' UK-West A-USA-West A- UK.(8 months of living hell) 2 Trips on 'Kabala' 3 trips on the 'Kaladan' 4 trips on the 'Kadeik' 1 on the 'Kohima' and on on the 'Kaduna'. All were 3-4 months at least. Didn't see or drink much alcohol - in those days we were limited to 2 cans of what ever lager a day. Also spent some time on the Apapa and Eboe - much better than the 'K' boats!!!
