Hello I'm new to the site.
My husband and I own the 31' yacht Nightfall (ex Nautilus) which we have spent 15 years restoring she was built at Millers Yard on Oulton Broard for W D Silcock in 1910. We have alot of information including her original drawings which were published in the Yachting Monthly when she was built.
We have been trying to find any photos of Millers yard around this time and who WD Silcock might have been. I have looked at all the information on the Broarlands Memories website and even emailed the Lowestoft museu, but we can't seem to get any more information. Can anyone help?
I would be most greatful. I have attached two photos of Nightfall for your interest.
Thank you

Thank you very much for your responce. I've just ordered Pippa Millers book from amazon. We keep Nightfall at Yarmouth, Isle of Wight. If you are interested in her there are some more photos on my hubands website martynmackrill.com Also we think Nightfall may be the only Miller's boat in existence there is another called Joyeuse built in 1906 but her where abouts unknown.
best wishes
