    A bunch of locals are struggling with zero cash but 110% enthusiasm to save the (now derelict) former RAN Harbour Defence Motor Launch #1321.

    There's a GoFundMe campaign here:
    https://www.gofundme.com/save1321

    And a Facebook page here:
    https://www.facebook.com/Save1321/

    Could anyone even remotely interested in the preservation of our military and maritime history please:
    A) donate
    B) re-tweet
    C) share on Facebook
    D) email to your 'list' of contacts

    As per usual, govt departments couldn't give a toss....so it's up to "we the people" to save the old girl for posterity, and as a memorial to the Coastwatchers and sailors who served with her.
