Description

The La Sierra is launched at Harland & Wolff.  We can hear Dr Rebbeck explain to Miss Sarah McDonald, who launched the ship, how the launch works. The men of the yard celebrate too. 

The La Sierra was a bulk carrier owned by Buries Markes. She was the last ship built in the Queen’s Yard at Harland & Wolff.
