David Luckett

I joined Reardon Smith straight from school in 1980 as an engineer cadet, and thus was only with the company for a short time leaving as a 4th.
I sailed on the Victory City, the second trip on her saw her change hands to TTM. Some of my greatest memories go back to the three trips on this aging ship and the fellow officers who sailed on her.

Reardon Smith turned this boy in to a man and it is fair to say made me the person I am to today, for which i am greatful.

I now run my own training and consultancy company (3T Services Limited) in the North West of England, focusing mainly on refrigeration and electrics.

September 2011.
