PS Gracie Fields built in 1936, was the last paddle steamer built for Red Funnel as a ferry and excursion steamer.[1] She ran on the Southampton-Cowes route until the outbreak of World War II, when she was requisitioned and served as HMS Gracie Fields as a minesweeper. After successfully evacuating troops from the Dunkirk beaches, she was seriously damaged by an aircraft bomb on 29 May 1940, and sank the following morning.
