so much worth adding to the history of this Naiad. Let's kick off with build data..

http://www.tynebuiltships.co.uk/N-Ships/naiad1940.html

Where the image of her in dazzle is actually as completed.

I would urge all here with an interest to read "The man around the engine" by Vice Admiral Sir Louis Le Bailly who in this autobiography devotes 4 chapters comprising 50 pages to his service as an engineer in Naiad from build to her loss.
Thats all folks. Sean.
