Historic Norfolk craft will be setting sail for a seaside town's maritime festival and flotilla.
Around 20 vessels will be taking part in the event at Wells over the weekend of June 20 and 21.
They include the restored lifeboat Lucy Lavers, which was one of the 'little ships' that rescued the British army from the advancing Germans at Dunkirk in May, 1940.
The flotilla will leave Tugboat Yard at 11.30am on the Saturday and be greeted by shanty singers on its return from the harbour mouth.
Nelson's Shantymen will be performing at 12.30pm on the Saturday on the Green beside Tugboat Yard, followed by the Sheringham Shantymen at 3pm.
On the Sunday the Blakeney Old Wild Rovers will be performing at 11am, followed by the Castaway Crew at 1pm.
There will also be a licensed bar, food van and stalls.
The event is organised by Rescue Wooden Boats, a charity based at nearby Stiffkey, which aims to preserve heritage craft and keep their histories alive.
Wendy Pritchard, one of its founder trustees, said: "The Maritime Heritage Festival is the essence of what Rescue Wooden Boats aims to do – bring together the historic wooden local working boats afloat, with the families who built and worked them, to tell and share their stories and display history in action afloat."
