Joris Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Wow what an adventure! Lot's of DUKWs crossed the channel too, amazing. Thanks for sharing! :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithy Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Excellent video, what a sight it must have been to have seen all these DUKW's in the water again! Where did you sail from in the UK? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark m uk Posted July 29, 2010 Author Share Posted July 29, 2010 Thanks guys, glad you like it - these posative responses is what generates interesting threads. Excellent video, what a sight it must have been to have seen all these DUKW's in the water again! Where did you sail from in the UK? We 'plopped in' at Margarats bay in Kent - the shingle beach made for some difficulties - the French beach was much better. You can certainly understand why such great research was done during WW2 to select suitable beaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gritineye Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I heard about this at the time, what a great adventure you all had! How would the DUKWs have coped fully laden, with all the wash from other larger craft on the day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithy Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Watching the video again I was wondering where all these featured DUKW's came from? I notice that one has an Australian flag on it and another a Norwegian flag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
