Officers from the Senlac attending a wedding. Can anyone identify some of these smart looking Merchant Navy men?
Yes from left to right, ?, Mick Cutler, Dennis Morgan, Bob Wallace, Harvey Nicolson, Roger Leister, Capt Levesey, Peter Franklin, Andy Payne, Capt Newton, Roy Elliot, ?. Senlac crew guard of honour, for Lucy Goffin & David Gurr, thanking them for all their help with the Senlac sit in, they were the first to send food parcels to the ship from the people of Newhaven.
The person on the right with the beard is Cyril Lester, brother of Roger in the back row of the picture.
The person to the right of Cyril Lester was know as "Rivers". He was a great guy. Does anyone know where Twinkle is?
Both Rodger Leister, (shipwright) and Capt Paul Levesley used to work at Newhaven Marina. Rodger left to join the MV SENLAC in 1973 when she came to Newhaven to run in partnership with the two French “V” Boats while I also had the privilege of working with Capt Paul Levesley who helped me run the office at RSM Marine Workshops, (Newhaven Marina ) in the late 1980's. Paul and I became good friends and I still keep in touch with him.
In the photo caption Morgan and Cutler should be transposed.
