The vessel was built as Ship No. 384 and named ‘R.A.F. 14’ for the Air Ministry. Construction was supervised by the Admiralty on behalf of the Air Ministry who at that time did not have any boat building overseers. She was ordered in June 1927 and was handed over in April 1928. At that time she was fitted with a Gardner 4 cylinder Semi-Diesel engine which developed 96 break horsepower.
CAILLIACH has been fully restored and converted to a live-aboard during the 1990s and is based in London.
