Dunkirk boat to feature in cavalcade

by isleofman.com 19th January 2012

A Manx boat will take its place in the thousand strong cavalcade of vessels for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee sail-past on the Thames this summer.

It's a small boat with a great history.

The former lifeboat took part in the evacuation of the British expeditionary force from France in 1940, from the beaches at Dunkirk.
