  Very impressive Paul, the William and Kate is a photographers dream as well but I imagine it is rather packed in there at the moment with the Wellington being worked on.

  Don't think there is a spare berth at the moment - fortunately the William and Kate Johnston is on the end

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Here are four of them taken in May 2007. As I recall the historic ones visited Dover on their way to a big lifeboat event.
