John has been keeping a log of all ship movements in and out of Liverpool from 1999 to the present date.
He is trying to find more information about ship movements before 1999 and has bits of records going back to 1947. He is trying to do the whole ship records going back as far as possible, but getting hold of ship movement records is not easy as nobody seems to keep Liverpool ship records anymore. There are plenty of passenger records, but not cargo or tanker movements.
Can you help or can you fill in details for a particular day? If so, please email John . The aim is to eventually put this record on the web so others can access and add to it.
Here is an example record of one days log:
