I agree with other comments - this almost certainly the "Kindiesel", based mainly on her launch date and the image dat.

Ships on the slipway are possibly the mv Dorset Coast (launched 9th Sept 1936) and mv Cornish Coast (launched 16th December 1936). mv Kindiesel was launched on 15th July 1936 and may be the left hand of the 2 ships. |
