Hi,
I have just finished reading 'Radio Caroline The True Story of the Boat that Rocked' by Ray Clarke published in 2014. DJ name Mick Williams on radio Caroline in the 1980's.

This book is written in the form of short interviews with people involved from the beginning with a good selection of photographs and overviews of the business deals and political cat and mouse episodes. You can only admire the tenacity and bravery of those involved in keeping the various ships financed and afloat plus climbing the rigging in all weathers to replace flashed over insulators and broken wire stays etc.

This was a chance find in the local library.
