nice one Steve,

This vessel was build in 1964 as SCH 107 “Gerritje” together whit the SCH 106, for Bul Verweij. He also was the owner of the radio vessel  “Veronica”. So anyone cold these vessels “Veronica” beamers. Scheepswerf Vooruit build a lot of these vessels, like the “Grietje” J 347 and the “Deirdre Mairead” WD 113. Lather on all these vessels where cold Veronica beamers.

Steve and Jutter,
