I went on a 10 day cruise as a 17 1/2 year old in 1968. Does anyone know what happened to crew member Kenny Akehurst? He was a 17 yr old Bell Boy in 1968 and worked on the Himalaya until about 1970.
Also Jimmy Geraghty?
While on the cruise a commercial was being filmed. Myself and another passsenger, Delma, were asked to walk by the pool while they filmed us.
Would love to see this footage and would love to find out whatever happened to Kenny who was from Tunbridge Wells England.

Dear Michael
I have a painting of the Himalaya entering Sydney Harbour in the late 1960’s,70’s. It was painted by the famous aviation and motoring artist Douglas Ettridge (1927-2009). I will send you an image by email if you would like to see it.
