From:- J. Travers-Moss, Motor Boat Kit-Cat,
Ramsgate.
Date:- 4th June, 1940.
To:- Naval Officer in Charge, Ramsgate.
Report that whilst on duty on the 3rd instant at Dunkirk we had decided to take a final look around when we sighted the Singapore, who in turn had been aground all night and, in attempting to get away, had burnt out her clutch, so we took her in tow at
0830. This having reduced our speed considerably, we did not deem it advisable to stay any longer.
As we reported verbally to you, in the south of the harbour there lay a Belgian boat with 8,000 gals of petrol aboard, but in view of our handicap V we were unable to destroy same.
? Lena isso information incorrect Liep why the Leua? She was Watch
