Floating clinic, Chee Hong, 1973

Chee Hong and Chee Wan, with their names chosen by then Club Steward Dr. Chau Sik Nin, were the two floating clinics donated by the Club in 1958 and 1959, respectively, to the government for the provision of out-patient clinical services to residents of outlying islands and remote villages. Chee Hong, built at a cost of about HK$370,000, served the area of the northern part of Lantau, southern and western seaboards of Po Tai and Sai Kung Peninsula. Both ships were constructed by the Taikoo Dockyard & Engineering Company of Hong Kong Limited.
