However there is one bit that does ring true......

The third part of this request concerns New Zealand. Anyone got memories of experiences with the Maori princesses? Apparently they were unattached women around 40 to 60 who would board a ship travelling to another NZ port and make themselves available to all the crew as and when they wanted to have them. In between sessions they lived under a shower!! Again any stories?
From experience I can tell you that these "Wharf Rats" as they were known - joined the ship in the first port we hit and basically stowed away and got free bed and board for a couple of weeks hiding in crew cabins and servicing some, or all of them. As officers it was our job to try and stop em from coming on board, or to hoof them off when we found them on board, as they used to cause so much trouble and fighting they were a real problem to have onboard.
Maori princesses? - Never heard em called that and never saw one of them turn up in a roller with an entourage of baggage handlers!!!!!!
:lol: :lol: Even the street walkers looked down on them for being complete slappers!
