- The story of the Krait is a tale as varied and as colourful as the many men who sailed in her - continued beyond Operation Jaywick. Attached to special operations, Krait spent the rest of the war in Darwin, befor disappearing into the jungle-lined rivers of Borneo. Rediscovered in 1958, she eventually returned to Australia - not to genteel retirement but to the most turbulent and controversial period of her sixty-year history.
