HMS Skiddaw (Campbell's PS Britannia)

This picture was taken from HMS Skiddaw and shows the 1907 PS Waverley (ex PS Barry) proceeding from Harwich to Dunkirk for the evacuation in 1940. Note the procession of small boats being towed astern. Her wartime name was HMS Snaefell and she was lost in 1941 when bombed off Sunderland.
