1 record

1 potential matching record has been identified.

These records may contain vessel particulars, reported movements, participation assessments, named personnel and source references. A match does not by itself prove that the vessel participated in Operation Dynamo.

“Potential match” means a candidate returned by one or more indexing rules; it is not necessarily an exact identity match. Depending on the source, matching may use a normalised vessel name, a partial text or OCR hit, an alias, or related metadata. Roman-numeral suffixes such as I, II, III, IV and V may be absent, misread or separated from the base name, so records for similarly named vessels can be grouped incorrectly. Multi-word names can also produce candidates where only one significant word matches. Confirm the full name, numeral, vessel type, dimensions, builder, ownership, dates and source context before treating two records as the same vessel.

We are compiling and checking transcriptions, metadata, vessel-name matches, source references and reuse permissions before publishing further detail. This work helps prevent incomplete OCR, historic spelling variations or unverified associations from being presented as established fact.

Dear Sirs,
Referring to your letter of recent date,
ref: T. 0.9144/STN. 6B in connection with the part
played by two of my boats in the Dunkirk incident,
following is a detailed account of the events as
they affected us:-
On Tuesday, May 28th 1940 I arrived at
Poole Quay at 8.30 p.m. after having completed my
day's ferrying work at Sandbanks with our 2 largest
motor launches, the "Southern Queen" & "Ferry Nymph"
& was approached immediately by officials of H.M.
Ministry of Shipping, who asked whether I had any
motor launches capable of going along the coast. I
offered them these two launches, which they accepted,
& was directed to take them to an appointed berth
alongside Poole Quay.
The launches were fuelled & made realy for
sea immediately, but at 10.00 p.m. we were informed
that the whole affair was cancelled.
The next day, Wednesday, we were carrying
on the Ferry business as usual at Sandbanks, when at
11. 00 a.m. we were telephoned & requested to have
the launches ready for the journey as soon as possible.
At 11.30 a.m. a further telephone message instructed
us to proceed to Dover with all possible speed.
We proceeded to Poole & obtained fuel, food,
charts, & crews for the 2 boats, & left Poole for
Dover at 3.00 p.m., wind being N.W., & 4 hrs. ebb tide
yet to run.
After a very steady run we arrived off Dover
at 1.00 p.m. on Thursday, May 30th & proceeded to the
examination ship for orders. After much signalling
between ship & shore we were instructed to proceed in-
side the harbour, & report to the Naval authorities, to
Director yound of Sea Transport.

whom we handed over our boats, in accordance with
instructions received before leaving Poole. On this
journey from Poole to Dover the crews were as
follows:-
"Ferry Nymph"
skipper A. Brown, Snr.
engineer.. J.C.H. Harvey.
"Southern Queen", skipper
G. H. Harvey.
engineer.. A. Brown, Jnr.
We understand that later that same afternoon,
May 30th; both launches, in charge of Naval ratings,
were on their way to Dunkirk.
Eventually "Ferry Nymph" came back to Ramsgate,
& early in July was towed back from Ramsgate to Poole.
Examination revealed many scars in her woodwork, &
aboard her were a large number of empty cartridge cases,
sundry other relics, & a good quantity of Dunkirk's
sand. The boat was reconditioned, & is now in service
again.
The "Southern Queen" did not return. We have
since met an Army Officer when on leave who stated
that a bomb fell close to the boat shortly after he
had been taken off the beach in her. She collapsed &
slowly sank. He remarked that he had been in the boat
many times whilst it was on the Sandbanks ferry, &
little expected to be in it again on the other side of
the channel. He stated that the boat made two more trips
inshore after rescuing his party before being sunk.
So far we have no further information as to the
boat's work whilst at Dunkirk.
