    Hi Andy,

    I have asked Johan Samyn for your email address who is a friend, but she does not look good.
    Here, I knew Johan for a few years as a Crested Eagle enthusiast and a diver like me in the wrecks of Operation Dynamo.
    I think that in a future, Vincent, Johan and I will put our information in common and I hope that he will release a book to value this crested eagle which deserves it.
    I hope we meet at the end of May with Johan.
    See you soon.
    Bruno

    Hi Bruno

    I'll send you a message with my email. I believe (not 100%) we are possibly all meeting on Friday the 31st May at the Crested Eagle, I have business in Aumale first for two days so should be in Dunkirk on Friday....I've still not seen the plaque since it was fixed to the ship in 2015 because of the tides. I'm hoping to see it on this trip.

    Photo of the SS Fenella sunk at the East mole with a barge next to her. No ID on the barge name or anything about it.
