They were around until the very early 1970\'s and were based in the Upper Pool of London and used to be moored alongside the Customs Pier (harpy) which was directly outside the old customs house building. The pier is still around and is now been relocated at the entrance to St Saviours dock (dockhead) and is now used as offices.

There are others still around see here :
