I know there's some of you big into aircraft restoration but this isn't an aircraft thread.

BBC News - World War II motorboats restored

Good to see these boats back in great condition and going well! Watching the clip I was reminded of a film I saw when I was a kid called 'The sea shall not have them' which highlighted the work of the RAF Air Sea Rescue boys. I'll have to see if I can find a copy on-line.
