Derelict boats on the beach at Dungeness.

Dungeness has no harbour so its fishing vessels were launched from the beach using ropes, winches and bulldozer. The boats, were less than 10 metres in length, had a modified design to allow them to be run up onto the shingle beach on their return.

The RX boat registration letters indicate that the boat was registered with the port of Rye.

RX435, Our Cathlene operated between 1964 and 1997.
