She is painted a steely blue-grey, and it is almost impossible to see her at any distance.
She certainly goes wonderfully.

Although there was not enough throb from the engines to mar the absolute stillness, she came on at a fine speed, and within a few minutes was close to the boom.

I had only time to run down to give orders to draw back the boom when she glided in and stopped dead at the harbour wall.

Rooke steered her himself, and he says he never was on a boat that so well or so quickly answered her helm.

She is certainly a beauty, and so far as I can see at night perfect in every detail.
