    I have sent a request via http://www.afloat.ie but it asked for a URL. Since I only know where the “steering wheel and brakes” are on my laptop, I’m not sure I’ve answered the URL question properly. And so, I’m not sure if it arrived.
    I’m writing a book and am looking for information in relation to ships, cargo etc., at the beginning of WWl.
    Can you let me know if the query arrived and if you would be willing to help?
