 FY PT 1011 just afloat at Wivenhoe. The yard boat stands by to help with mooring ropes and later in removal of sliding ways, poppets and other timber structure of a launch. The pastoral countryside of Fingringhoe in the background belies the time of war and thankfully remains unchanged today. [JL]
