I thoght it was a B converted. I did not mention the 's' as I had not heard of it before and assumed it was a mistake or just part of the ID number....

Hi Clive

Golden Arrow ex Sea Queen (or Sea Kayem) thought most likely to be ex ML 917. Yes, a Fairmile B.

There was never a Fairmile S.

Rgds, Christian.

Hi Christian

Yes the "S" had Phil Simons puzzled when I mentioned it to him today!

Small hopes about her being that elusive last remaining "D" boat!
