Hello all,
Could anyone help with the history of the William Osborne yard at Littlehampton? I have been struggling to find much out at all and would be grateful to be pointed in the right direction. All info on the yard and her various boats would be most welcome.
I have a launch built in the war, but cannot find out very much about what she would have been built for. I believe she is an 'Overseas launch', or at least she came with a copy of a very old brochure of an Overseas Launch that looks like her. She is very much like a Thames Police boat, but I have no idea of where she went when she was built.
If anyone can point me in the right direction for background information on this great builder, it will help her restoration no end and I will be most grateful.
