Nice procession of little boats. Good to see them preserved.

Obligatory clip of Barham exploding, and then an S Boat :)

I had the pleasure of driving MGB 81 around Portsmouth Harbour a while back, and CMB 9 around Bristol Docks

Nice to see any 'little ships' still sailing!

Still would have loved to see a 'Dog' boat, or Fairmile 'C' MGB though….sigh!

I'm sure there's 'dog' boat somewhere under restoration. David Manley will know. David?

I know there's a few "B"s around.

No "D"s as far as I know. Wiki suggests there are only two known survivors and they are both wrecks

Anyone who hasn't might want to read William Faulkner's "Turn Around" for the occasion. If you've missed it, he left off sex race and the deep south to do a short story about the CMB's. The incident he describes ought to be a pretty decent game.
