I remember this vessel it was moored at anchor bay [Erith] on the lower reaches of the Thames .The owner was sheaving the hull with plywood as it was leaking quiet bad .A few years later as a fisherman working out of Folkestone I heard it call on the VHF. It had been on a trip back to Dunkirk with the Little Ships. The owner had a terminal illness as I remember and was determined to do this one last trip with her. All this was 30 years ago but I still remember the funnel and the engine which was a petrol Kelvin
