Rust In Peace...Madang Ranger in Madang Harbour |
The Ramu Ranger served the people along the Ramu River in the Madang Province and undertook commercial runs to Manam, Kar Kar, Long Island carrying copra successfully.
It now lies in a ship's graveyard in the Madang Harbour as pictured in a state beyond repair along with numerous other wrecks that have also suffered the same fate.

Sir Peter suggested it was time for the national government through the National Maritime Safety Authority to provide an advisory service to assist the provincial governments and MPs purchasing the right type of vessel that can be operated commercially in PNG for the specific purpose intended.
some one should pull these things out to sea and sink them. if it is not too deep they can become diving sights especially after the reefs begin to grow on them. They can become a piece of beauty instead of an eyesore!
