The motor trawler 'Broadwater' FD208 was built in Goole in 1958 for Mason Trawlers (R Bagshaw Ltd.). She was later owned by Boston Deep Sea Fishing Co. and renamed 'Boston Crusader' in 1972. Colne Shipping bought her in 1977 as the 'Jamaica' for use as an oil-rig safety vessel. She was scrapped in 1986.
