Dear All

One of my colleagues is desperately trying to find the history of the above boat where his father served.

Could anyone shed light on its operations or crew? I'm sure it operated in the Med but have no further intel.

Thanks

Hi Geoff

Just watched the DVDs, congratulations on your fine work.

I'll go out on a limb and suggest you look for MGB 516 (later 2016) rather than MTB 516. MGB 516 was an "interchangeable MGB/MTB", a 117ft long boat built by Camper & Nicholson. The pennant was in the MGB number range, rather than the MTB range.
