MGB612

   Does anyone have any information on MGB612?  I am particularly interested to find out about her movements during 1942.  My father was on board and remembers picking up a gentleman one evening on the River Dart and continuing out to sea.  They were often out for a few hours on trials but on this occasion they were out for more than 10 hours during which time another vessel came alongside and their passenger was transferred.  He has often wondered if they were transferring a spy off the French coast.  The only other facts he remembers is that one chap on board was called Bill Endicott.  
If anyone can help fill in some details, or knows of any other sites I can visit, it would be great to hear from you.

	Sounds like she was working for SOE on that one. If its not in the public domain though, theres still a lot of stuff from back then thats classified. Not sure why as there cant be many 90yr old spies still working, prob just to confuse conspiracy nuts & keep a little mystery for the rest of us
