Roy Rudd, a familiar shipping industry face from the 1960s and 1970s, has died at 90.
Shipbroker son Mike Rudd, who founded Vortex Shipbroking in 2018, said his father died on 25 May having had “a fantastic life”.
He spent over 50 years in the shipping industry.
Roy Rudd joined what was then shipbroker Simpson Spence & Young, after cutting his teeth with paint specialist Hempel Marine and a forerunner of oil company Mobil.
