Looks a bit on the well worn side but could it be Uganda...probably not :think:

Sorry I didn't back here earlier, but I've been confined to bed with a bad cold. Anyway, no-one is right about the ship's name so far. It was the SS Rangatira, an ex-New Zealand car ferry that took a few hundred of us down to the Falklands.
