In the sixties I worked for a Swedish shipping company, the “Johnson Line” = Rederiaktiobolaget “Nordstjernen,” the vessel MS PERU. A cargo ship with 12 passangers accomodation. We would start out in Stockholm then CPH, Gothenburg, Hamburg, Rotterdam, Antwerpern, Southampton, then over the Atlantic to many U.S. ports and down to the Panama Canal, up the West Coast on Central America to S.F. Or other trips down to South American ports, loading/unloading merchant cargo and passengers would embark/disembark in different ports!

Fine. But it didn't call in either Hawaii or Africa. I'd be very surprised if there was a ship that called at both places.

Even if you could find one, I seriously doubt it was a direct route. It probably would have called a dozens of ports in Asia before reaching Kenya. How long would a trip like that have taken? 2-3 months, minimum.

That's because a "land-crab" like you have such a shallow head (brain) that whatever you are told don't have the brain capacity to absorb it!

I gave you a list of hundreds of shipping lines and probably thousands of vessels that does exactly that!!

Go and get a real life instead of being a masochist thirsting for orgasm!!!
