Solvay 92

Solvay 92, registration NY3015F, was built at Choisy-le-Roi in 1930 with a 25 hp Deutz engine. The information on this page is taken from Vagus-Vagrant.fr unless otherwise stated.

When Solvay sold her she became a training vessel for the Dombasle vocational high school, under the name Lep, and later for the Lille vocational high school. Then she was scrapped.
