for some time, Caresana is now in the ownership of the Dunkirk Little Ships Restoration Trust and her future looks assured.
She was built as a lifeboat in 1933 by Groves and Gutteridge and based at Dungeness. She is said to have been our longest service lifeboat - called Charles Hooper Henderson during her RNLI days.
