The SRNs were built in my home town Cowes, Always had an interest in them. The slipway that housed the cocooned Princess flying boat, (also built at Saunders-Roe), became the terminal for the Seaspeed passenger operation between Cowes and Southampton. Took it a few times in an SRN6. The much larger Rolls-Royce Proteus four engined was a sound to behold.
