ISBN
For the Huntford Shackleton reference, the ISBN given was incorrect. Since page numbers are referenced, I'd like to double check. I'm pretty sure I've got it right, through Amazon.co.uk. If someone could confirm, I'd be grateful. Thanks! --Storkk (talk) 19:01, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * The ISBN number given is the book's valid identifier for ISBN 13. I am not up on the current ISBN numbering system, but believe this is current.  Bigturtle (talk) 23:46, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Glad I found it, thanks for the confirmation. The corresponding ISBN-10 would be 0-689-11429-X. Storkk (talk) 01:02, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Original name
So far as I can find, the Mercosur article, which doesn't even hint at its source, is the only source (excluding clear copies from this article) that claims that the ship was originally Foca II. Everywhere else - including Google results (main, images and books), contemporary newspapers, Norwegian shipping research/archives - has Foca I. It looks like a straight mistake, or even just a typographical error, and it seems inappropriate to give it any prominence in the article. I have removed it, but if it must be restored, I suggest moving it to a footnote. - Davidships (talk) 14:36, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
