Not so little then...

The MV Royal Daffodil (1939) was one of the "Little Ships". According to the list of particiipating vessels on Wikipedia, it evacuated a total of 7461 people over 5 crossings. 

Although Little Ships will identify at least 75,000 sites with an average number of just 10 homes per site, we'll also go after big sites. When we raise sufficient start-up funds, the only difference between us and private developers will be that our 'profit' will get re-invested in building more homes.
