Hello, I am trying to find valuable plans, photos and data about that ships but I am unable to find anything. My intention is building one of barges employed in 1925 in the first air-land-sea operation of the history, the landings at Alhucemas, Morocco, when they were employed to carry soldiers, FT tanks and supplies to the beaches.
Any information would be welcome
Thank you

Ola Javier,

You will find more info if you look for British Lighter or Lighter Barge
as this is what the K barges actually were called.

Cheers,
Joe
