Offshore 50 was a reunion relating to radio stations operating from International Waters off the UK, between 1964 and 1968.
Much as we respect the marine broadcasters from other countries and other eras who are now departed,
it was impossible to include all their names.

Respect to all the Sixties musicians who have left us to join the guys who played their music in the Great Radio Station in the Sky.
 
Our apologies and respect to the memory of any offshore colleagues who may inadvertently have been missed from this list.

There remains a small number of ex-offshore personnel whom we would have liked to have invited to the reunion, but unfortunately, we have never managed to locate. They too are our Absent Friends.
