Dear all,

The last entry on the BODC part 3 list was about the GRV Newton, and you
Mitch wrote that:

" 11. Changed NEWTON to RMAS  NEWTON, existing code 7440 -I THINK this
is the same as RMAS NEWTON."

It was already written as RMAS NEWTON on the NODC list anyway, and I
agree that it must be the same ship (just found photos of the RMAS
NEWTON & the GRV NEWTON on the web, and both ships have the number A367
on the Starboard)), so I will copy the 7440 HMAS NEWTON entry from the
NODC list, and add the GRV, call sign GURN and additional comments in
our comments field.

Best regards,
Susanne



ICES740T	GRV Newton	MOD, Royal Maritime Auxiliary Service,
                                built 1976, major conversion 1993 and
2000
------------------------------------------------------------------------
SR: I don't know what GRV means, we don't have data or ROSCOPs for this
ship
either. I have found the call sign to be GURN, and can agree to the 
suggested code as 740T, BUT NODC has a RMAS Newton coded as 7440.

Platform id:  10375
Name:  RMAS Newton
NODC Code: 7440
OC5 Code:  8578
