Further indexing may identify vessel particulars, reported movements, participation assessments, named personnel and source references. The absence of a current match does not establish that no relevant source exists.
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.

4 potential matching records have been identified.
These records may contain OCR text matches, source files, page references and digitised page imagery. 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.

These details have been aggregated from multiple sources and may include contemporary records, later recollections, claims or assertions for which no corroborating evidence has been identified. Inclusion does not establish that any account or assertion is accurate. The information may be incomplete, out of date, disputed or incorrect and should be checked against the underlying source records and independent evidence before being relied upon.

TO 9144/STN MADAME POMPADOUR Reply 11/11/20 H. I, with another man (Morley Lawson), was asked to collect to a Motor Cruiser lying at Maidstone and deliver her to 82 -nu Sheerness, and thence to Ramsgate if required. Our ship turned out to be a small Diesel engined Motor Yacht named "Madame Pompadour" which was lying out of use in the river DOCU just below Maidstone. By the time we got on board it was too late to unlock, and it was not until darkness set in that we were able to proceed, and in consequence had a somewhat difficult time navigating down as far as Rochester without charts, all aids to navigation being removed, and neither of Io us having had previous knowledge of that part of the river. Despite the fact that navigation in the Medway was prohibited after dark, we were able to pass Chatham Dockyard without challenge, but found it impossible to continue on the tide, and returned to Gillingham where we secured, unknowingly, alongside an ammunition vessel, still unchallenged. At day-break we got under way once more, and duly arrived at to 10 Sheerness. After signing on the books of H.M.S. Wildflower, the bne depot ship, we were joined by 8. Skipper R.N.R., a volunteer deck hand, and an active service stoker, without previous experience of Internal Combustion engines, who had been sent 1 to act as Engineer and run our Diesel engines. We set sail for Ramsgate with a convoy of other craft, was preparing to keep ship going all night, when we heard many planes overhead, so we stopped the Motor and relied on our Sails, while wj still favoured us. But many times that night planes came in quit close range. As daylight broke we could see where we were and occasionally gunfire was heard, and planes above us. So we contr with Sails to near Dover, and to get quickly by there seemed to b motive, when it seemed just for the purpose the wind failed us, SU lowered Sails. The Motor was our only chance now in this strong and contrary wind. So with the assistance of the Seamen, I tried starting, but fou she was cold, and that the cold paraffin had given me a wet plug. had to re-start on petrol and change a plug. I had taken some time to localise our difficulty and to remedy it, that I felt very relieved when she started, as without power, we might very well have been blown P.T.O
