The Motorised Fishing Vessel 'Willdora' was constructed in 1901 in Scotland and was one of a large number of small ships that took part in Operation Dynamo - the evacuation of Allied military personnel from the north coast of France in 1940.

It eventually ended up in Sunderland where it has undergone substantial repairs, including by volunteers from Sunderland Maritime Heritage. A small boat with a very interesting history!
