Remember it well. The Safmarine Fruit Reefers used to berth opposite the Ocean Terminal. Went there many times. Usually we were in for 4 or 5 days. The Queen Elizabeth came in one day we were there. Watching in awe was a Junior Engineer, ex SA Railways, 'Do you know' the Mate said to him, ' the level of the dock goes up two feet when she comes in'. 'Wow really' said the young man !!!

Union Castle in the dry dock next door ?
