The Cruisers I’m surprised that they were still around until 1947.

I see what could be old wooden wall ships judging by the. Tumbleholm of the sides. Wonder what they were being used for,
They had been converted to steam.

Not seen photos of the Slake like that I can remember so something new Thanks Peter.
