The MV Honduran, a boat that ran the southern coast in the 1960's, at Fort George, 1967. The Heron H is the smaller boat to the right side of it
The Honduran arrived in Belize City on Fridays, and departed Sundays.
Hector Silva:
Old Aubrey Buster Hunter who owned the Heron H and I think the Maya Prince also brought in a Boat by name the HONDURAN to substitute for the Heron H. - But mysteriously it caught fire down South. -Some claimed SABOTAGE. - But let us not forget the OCL for Bowman and SARAWEE for Don Areliano Kuylin. ( OCL for his three daughters - Olive, Carrie and Leonie. - SARAWEE for his Farm and Orange Grove. ) But on an occasion the Honduran was rented by the Hunters to fullfil their contract with government to carry the Mail. Both Aubrey Hunter and his daughter Audrey came to my office of Communications to inform the Ministry of this temporary arrangements. But something went wrong so the Maya Prince did the job. I think the Honduran's owner was Arthur Hoare.
Nick Pollard:
I knew the Honduran; it would be discharging sacks of cement at the Customs Wharf while I would be loading the Hammet for Glovers Reef Lomonts.
