It is believed that she was shipped to Ireland during the Second World War and later became Myvera, although launched as Motor Yacht Vera II.
In 1947 she was moored in Rochester on the River Medway and affiliated to the Rochester Cruising Club. She was moved to moorings in Shoreham, Sussex, in 1948 and then onto the Thames where she was kept at Tough's Boatyard, Teddington. She was affiliated to the British Motor Cruising Club and the Little Ship Club. Later in the '50s she moved upriver to Tagg's Island and was affiliated to the Upper Thames Motor Boat Club.
