The "steamer type" exhaust pipe is certainly correct for some ex GUCCC boats, (Large Woolwich, I believe) but the decoration is far from traditional.

From reading "Walkers of Ricky", https://www.amazon.co.uk/Walkers-Ricky-Ltd-Rickmansworth-Hertfordshire/dp/095179230X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1495301082&sr=8-1&keywords=walkers+of+ricky it would appear the funnel was fitted to any boat they fancied or were specified, which they built. I think only the GUCCCo specified them. Stand correction here though. Edited May 20, 2017 by Ray T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the often overlooked three motor's built by E.G. Woods, Brentford appear to be overlooked once again, although loosely captured under 'small' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
