Given it’s 76 years on this weekend; apparently there is another D-Day landing craft survivor in addition to the one currently being restored to display in Portsmouth.

Located in Poole Harbour, in a very sorry state is LCT728. Google maps shows she could still be there, but given the developments in Poole that may no longer be the case.

Need very deep pockets and a lot of ambition for this one.

Very nice write up here and 3D model From Nick Mason.

Must be a few bits worth salvaging even if the rest is too far gone - the landing ramp door looks intact and every passenger and every vehicle onboard would have crossed it.
