'Incredible welcome' as Little Ships return to Kent after weather delays
Watch: Commodore Kevin Finn, from the Association of Dunkirk Little Ships, describes the week's events and the reception given at Ramsgate harbour.
Dozens of Little Ships have returned to Kent from Dunkirk, after commemorating 75 years since Operation Dynamo.
The fleet had been due to return last weekend, but poor weather conditions returned the sailing.
Hundreds of people lined the harbour wall on Saturday evening to welcome the boats, which had set off for France on May 21st.
Commodore Kevin Finn, from the Association of Dunkirk Little Ships, described the reception as 'amazing' and said the unexpected delays had been a chance to build relationships.
" Friends that we knew we liked became friends that we loved, people we didn't know very well became great friends.
"The people of Dunkirk were amazing and the people of Ramsgate have been incredible, coming out to welcome us home on a Saturday evening."
