It will be a while before the page becomes comprehensive. The data below will change as new data is located & included. Just a handful of vessels are listed so far. The list must start somewhere. Have started a list of vessels built by 'Pile & Smart' of North Sands. I do not know if in fact the name is correctly related to William Pile. Miramar lists (highest hull number on page). It used to be that you could click on the links that follow & get to the relevant Miramar page. But no longer! The new procedure must be to go to Miramar (here) & log in (you must be registered to view any page). And once you are logged in, return to this page & all the following links should work for you:- 135, 163, 196, 224, 241, (134) Vessels built by W. & J.
