The French tug VIGILANT was seized by the Italiens as FR 93. Can anyone help identify this tug?

Yes, my text was confusing. VESLEKARI was captured by FRIDTJOF NANSEN in Arcticsund. I have corrected my text.

Hello. Your list is a mix of fishing boats arriving form Norway with refugees, fishing boats arriving from Iceland, "Shetland" bus, 'Anklet' boats, fishing vessels used in UK and even a Norwegian navy motor torpedo boat MTB.56. What information are you looking for? Can EROS be ENOS? Regards

The auxiliary patrol boat Heureux and auxiliary minesweeper Tatiana, both listed as seized by British 3.7.1940, were both paid off in Casablanca September 1940. How did they end up in Vichy-French Morocco?

Thank you very much!
I am looking for information on auxiliary crafts (A/P vessels). This was new information to me.
Do you know the D-number for French A/P vessels 1943-45, too?

P.136 L'Ajaccienne (1936/466), P.138 La Toulonnaise (1934/425) and P.139 La Setoise (1934/427) was given pendant numbers W31-33 in 1948, but what where the W-numbers of 1943-44?

Thank you Alain. I was wondering if it was ever completed.

Hello,
Can anyone help with the history of PLATANE of Crabe class (1917-18).
Was this ship ever finished?

The armistice between Italy and France was effective from 25 June 1940. Was there any fighting between France and Italy later in 1940? (Porto Torres is on northern Sardinia).

Thank you.
Both vessels are Italian, do you know how they ended in the Vichy French navy in 1940?

Regards
Atle
