HMAS Maryborough (ACPB 95), named after the city of Maryborough, Queensland,[1] is one of fourteen Armidale-class patrol boats operated by the Royal Australian Navy (RAN). Design and construction{{main|Armidale-class patrol boat}}The Armidale-class patrol boats are {{convert|56.8|m}} long, with a beam of {{convert|9.7|m}}, a draught of {{convert|2.7|m}}, and a standard displacement of 270 tons.[2] The semi-displacement vee hull is fabricated from aluminium alloy, and each vessel is built to a combination of Det Norske Veritas standards for high-speed light craft and RAN requirements.[3] The Armidales can travel at a maximum speed of {{convert|25|kn}}, and are driven by two propeller shafts, each connected to an MTU 16V M70 diesel.[4] The ships have a range of {{convert|3000|nmi}} at {{convert|12|kn}}, allowing them to patrol the waters around the distant territories of Australia, and are designed for standard patrols of 21 days, with a maximum endurance of 42 days.[4][3] The main armament of the Armidale class is a Rafael Typhoon stabilised {{convert|25|mm|in|adj=on}} gun mount fitted with an M242 Bushmaster autocannon.[4] Two {{convert|12.7|mm|in|adj=on}} machine guns are also carried.[4] Boarding operations are performed by two {{convert|7.2|m|ft|adj=on}}, waterjet propelled rigid-hulled inflatable boats (RHIBs).[3] Each RHIB is stored in a dedicated cradle and davit, and is capable of operating independently from the patrol boat as it carries its own communications, navigation, and safety equipment.[3][5] Each patrol boat has a standard ship's company of 21 personnel, with a maximum of 29.[6][3] The Armidales do not have a permanently assigned ship's company; instead, they are assigned to divisions at a ratio of two vessels to three companies, which rotate through the vessels and allow the Armidales to spend more time at sea, without compromising sailors' rest time or training requirements.[3][7] A 20-berth auxiliary accommodation compartment was included in the design for the transportation of soldiers, illegal fishermen, or unauthorised arrivals; in the latter two cases, the compartment could be secured from the outside.[8] However, a malfunction in the sewerage treatment facilities aboard {{HMAS|Maitland|ACPB 88|6}} in August 2006 pumped hydrogen sulphide and carbon monoxide into the compartment, non-fatally poisoning four sailors working inside, after which use of the compartment for accommodation was banned across the class.[7][8] Maryborough was one of two patrol boats ordered in 2005, following an 2004 federal election promise that the Coalition would provide a dedicated patrol force for the oil and gas producing facilities located off the north-west coast of Australia.[6][3][9] Maryborough was constructed by Austal at their shipyard in Henderson, Western Australia.[2] She was commissioned into the RAN in Brisbane{{citation needed|date=January 2014|reason=Location not specified in cited source}} on 8 December 2007.[2]Operational history{{Empty section|date=August 2010}}FireOn 26 May 2017 Maryborough suffered from an Engine Room fire while at sea operating North-West of Darwin. No crew members were injured and the ship returned to Darwin for an assessment of the damage.[10] Citations1. ^{{Cite news|title=Navy boat to be named HMAS Maryborough |url=http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2007/12/07/2112221.htm |publisher=ABC News |date=7 December 2007}} 2. ^1 2 Saunders (ed.), IHS Jane's Fighting Ships 2012–2013, p. 33 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 Kerr, Plain sailing 4. ^Heron & Powell, in Australian Maritime Issues 2006, p. 132 5. ^Heron & Powell, in Australian Maritime Issues 2006, p. 131 6. ^1 2 3 4 Wertheim (ed.), The Naval Institute Guide to Combat Fleets of the World, p. 22 7. ^1 Kerr, Patrol boats shake down fuel faults 8. ^1 McKenna, Gas risk remains for navy boats 9. ^Heron & Powell, in Australian Maritime Issues 2006, p. 130 10. ^{{cite web|title=Navy safely responds to fire in HMAS Maryborough|url=https://news.defence.gov.au/media/media-releases/navy-safely-responds-fire-hmas-maryborough|website=Australian Department of Defence News and Media|accessdate=2 June 2017}} References
