Hi All,

I am looking for a picture of the water boat Daisy or her sister ship Heather.  They were built for Hammer & Co Singapore circa 1937/8.  Daisy successfully escaped the Fall of Singapore taking a group of 13 or 14 men to the Djambi River mouth where she was scuttled.  The Japanese raised her and used her as a dumb lighter.  Post WW2 she was returned to Hammer & Co.

Any information about Daisy would be very much appreciated.
