Hi Gaz.
Hmm, I had seen that PT201 became MGB 181. That is what is confusing me. I have found no reference of a MGB 181 under British serving vessels so far.
It also seems to have an incredibly short life of about 3 months. Surely that would be the delivery time. Did it serve as an American PT boat and was then transferred or was it built and delivered as such?
I am wondering if the "Fate" date is really it's date of transfer over to the RN!?
Also if it became MGB 181 it would not have had torpedoes.
Is it a simple typo or did it change commissions!?
It seems the more I find out the less I really know!
Or do I have a Bitsa?
A bits of this and bits of that boat!
Now I have the bit between my teeth I am determined to find out more, whichever way it turns. Beginning to look like I may have to change it's registration.
Ah well, C'est La Vie!
Oh yes I know what you mean about time limits! I have four kids and so get rationed time as well, especially whilst they are on holiday.
