[Platforms] Help please

[Roy Lowry]

Dear All,

There is some confusion about the vessel to which the USNODC/ICES ship code '35A6 Arago (FAGY)' refers.  There are two possibilities.

A destroyer named Somali converted to an 'experimental vessel' in 1968 and renamed Arago active until 1974.

A survey ship active from 1991 until 2002 when she was converted into a maritime patrol ship.

I know SISMER have 1 CSR record mapped to 35A6 dating from 1968.  If anybody else has dated metadata associated with this code could they please let me know so thet we can assign the correct extended metadata to the code.

Your help would be much appreciated.

Cheers, Roy.
