JOANETTA was built by WJ Yarwood at Northwich in 1911. She was one of a pair built as yard number 140 (140a & 140b?) and named C 333 & C 334.
They were steel built, 49grt, 20nrt, 65.0 x 14.2 x 6.9ft, 200nhp, 1 Screw
Their naming suggests an Admiralty involvement, but the WSS Yard list has them delivered for Joseph Constant.
One of them, probably C333, then became:
1912 Joseph Constant, London; registered at London; renamed JOANETTA
by 1914 Topham, Jones & Railton Ltd, London
by 1919 Tilbury Contracting & Dredging Co Ltd, London
1920 Tees Conservancy Commission, Middlesbrough; registered at Middlesbrough
