Default Combat Support Boat

This boat is moored on the Dee in Chester today ( 20/3/21) and must have ,I presume,have come up river over the weir at high tide.

Is it a MOD owned craft or owned by a Walter Mitty character ?

P.B.

May well be in private hands now, but they certainly were (are?) an MOD asset.

Great memories of charging up and down the River Fleet in one in my younger days. Turns on a sixpence if I remember correctly.
