About MePart of ABDMS095560, a collection of Documents and Drawings retained by TQMS after delivery of the RMS St. Helena. These were passed to the ship’s operator and presented to AAGM by Andrew Weir Ship Management after the sale of the ship by the Government of St Helena.

This is not a complete set of drawings and documents produced by the shipyard but covers key pre-contract and design approval material. The collection illustrates the interactions between the shipbuilder and the owner’s design and verification consultants. Detailed shipyard construction drawings are not included.

Some of the documents and drawings are 'pre-contract' and show the development of the design by the consultants and some of the tendering process including documents related to competing shipyards.
