They are part of a collection being looked at for inclusion in my RN pages and unfortunately have no description to identify where they are.

Possible sites are Milford Haven, lerwick or kirkwall.

Re: Mystery craft

hi Tony, the one with the funnel is a 56ft Steam Pinnace, possibly ex-RN but not definately, could have been ordered by RAF. All out of service by mid-30's I believe, cannot make out the other craft.
