Can anyone identify this motor pleasure-boat? Further research suggests it might be Mr. G. Cundy's 1919-built "Grace darling IV" from Walter Cook's Yard at Maldon. {She is said to have been the first motor-pleasure boat running from a Pitch in front of the Kursaal, during the 1920 Season, and after. If my ID is correct, she was lost at Dunkirk due to the incompetence of her "scratch" RN-crew. [See Naval Staff History, 1949, republished by MoD Whitehall Histories, in 2000.]
