Hi,

I'm restoring a engine Torpedo recovery vessel I recognize from Greenwich maritime museum my MTRV Yard Nos (1193 -1197) serviced the MTB squadrons in the south it experienced been made in 1939. In woolston yard Southampton the vessel was ordered as among a school of many by the admiralty and employed for torpedo recovery for MTB 101 Rear Admiral Bakes boat at Dunkirk most ideal after his dispatch got sunk

Would anyone happen to know precisely where I would start to come across out about her early years and regardless of whether photographs would exist as I'd prefer to maintain her as genuine as possible, on the very same time come across out some qualifications about her.
