I am trying to trace the history of the two Brave class fast attack craft Brave Swordsman and Brave Borderer. The limited information I have so far is that Borderer was sold in 1982, while Swordsman was sold in 1979 to Ormond Haydon-Bailliefor preservation. But in Ships Monthly for November 1998 it was reported that Swordsman had been scrapped by Henry Pounds, the naval scrap dealer at Portsmouth. So can anyone please confirm that this was the final fate of Swordsman? And has any reader any information about the fate of Borderer after she was sold in 1982?
