  • This vessel was mine and was stolen from cyprus,I still have the certificate of registry,and all the history,she was 56 ft long,the only 56 ft pinnace the navy had,and she was the admirals barge on HMS Repulse,originally steam powered,and was converted by her builders Harlaand and wolff at belfast,she was refitted with a dorman 6 cylinder,and still had her original prop,regards,ron rider

  • southray was not an raf pinnace,she was the admirals barge off hms repulse,and the only 54 ft pinnace the navy ever had,she was originally steam and converted at harland and wolf where she was originally built.she was my craft in gib and I still have the certificate of registry,she was damaged in cyprus by the ro ro ferry and sunk in limmassol,she was salvaged and the corrupt system in cyprus seemed to swallow her up,she was last sighted on the west coast of nthe island in a river inlet on her side and direlect,best forgotten,as I noow have a 32 ft twin screw motor by rlm,regards Ron Rider
