Stage 9 - Cleaning the hull inside and fitting the floors.

A remarkable piece of local maritime history is coming to life in our Museum boatbuilding workshop. Under the direction of Bob White, Boat Collection Manager, our workshop volunteer team are carefully crafting a replica of a World War II boat with an extraordinary secret mission…

Pass by our boatbuilding workshop in the Museum to see the progress of the Helford Special Operations Boat build or subscribe for regular workshop video updates.

With the generous support of a ‘Victory 80’ award, our WWII S.N.2 Special Operations Executive (SOE) replica boat build project can uncover more about the role these boats played during the war. The award was funded by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport and awarded by Museum Development South West with thanks to support from Arts Council England.

Visitors can look forward to seeing the completed historic vessel, and learning more about the secret wartime activities of the Helford River, in a special exhibition planned for spring 2026.
