I saw Lemberg in Preston Marina a few weeks ago and took these snaps. Unfortunately she's not moored close enough to get decent shots but it's clear she needs some attention.

Only phone pics but I had to shrink them to post. The originals show decent detail if anyone needs it for reference. Anyone know who's looking after Lemberg now?

How does one post photos here?, I have a couple of what I believe are DCWs, except the rear cabin only has two portholes and the cabin appears to have been shortened.

Click "Post reply".
Size it to under 50kb and use the picture of the tree to insert it.

This photo taken in Malta appears to be a modified DCW, the modification being the shortened rear cabin with only two portholes.

See page 3 of this topic to find out more about Call Boy (lower photo).

Upper photo seems to be an FMB.

@ Christian,
  My initial thoughts were that the lower photo was Call Boy with a different paint job, but no matter how I enhance the photo, it still appears the rear cabin has only two "port holes" whereas Call Boy had three.

See a much bigger version of that picture here;


The aft structure had been reduced in order to enlarge the open cockpit area.

Later as Hornblower II she had no trace of the original aft structure.

Not sure if this was when she was still Call Boy or Hornblower.

@ Christian,
  May I politely ask what FMB stands for and what length would the launch in the photo be?

  thanks - Michael
