Great picture, the boat name takes me back to 1974 my GCE English Lit exam. The set book to study was Shakespeare's 'Scottish Play'!

Those witches and their opening pages have stuck in my mind forever 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davecc Posted July 18, 2022 Share Posted July 18, 2022 I'm not sure if this should go here, but this is the dinghy included with Gray Malkin 1964. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Older than I thought, just realised, I did my GCE 'O' Levels in 1967, obviously I was 'In the fog and swirling mist' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps somebody (Vaughan?) could enlighten me as to if the descriptions are correct. The houseboat at the top of the page looks like one of the flat-afloats but I didn't think they were called that until quite a few years later. There is one listed at Wayford Bridge and one at Brundall. Roy " "Blue Lagoon" was a 63ft type 2 BPBCo "Whaleback" either an HSL (AirSeaRescueLaunch) of the RAF or an MASB (MotorAntiSubmarineBoat) of the Royal Navy: DOES ANYBODY WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO HER, PLEASE!! (and what ENGINES are fitted now)(originally 3x550hp Napier "Sea-Lions") 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
