Hi Guys, might be a lead on one of the Dog boats in 1948 sent to Argentina.... you need to read it though Google to get it to translate, (unless you read Spanish of course)
http://patrullerasargentinas.blogspot.com/2011/05/patrulleros-de-alta-mar-pam-ex-lanchas.html Here is link to the pictures, not so sure myself, as cannot see enough of the hull http://www.histarmar.com.ar/Exploraciones/Delta/Fairmile.htm Edited by Jim - 19 November 2011 at 9:21pm |

Hi there,
Many thanks for these pictures, shot of naval vessel very good, well the other looks sort of right size, severe loss of hull planking though!!!

Hello Neil, I'm out of plaster and typing again, does look like your boat may well be BPB, I saw the discussion on CMBA too, I'll drop you an email and maybe come see her over the christmas break.

found this about Hoyal.. probably something to do with BPBco ( supermarine )
"
Miss Margate was originally built as a class 9 Sedan version, but before delivery to Ramsgate she was converted to a class 7 triple cockpit runabout. Following an accident and fire in 1936 at Supermarine Aviation, she was rebuilt one foot shorter at 25 feet by Hoyle Craft in Nottingham. Sold as a high speed trip boat, to run holidaymakers off Margate beach. Under the command of Mr George Rickwood from Brightlingsea, Essex, Miss Margate was sent by then Ramsgate Harbour Master, Mr D.R. Price to Dunkirk on 31st May 1940, towed by the Dutch Schuit |
