HMS Packington (pennant number: M1214) was a {{sclass2-|Ton|minesweeper||ship}} built by Harland & Wolff for the Royal Navy. The following year she was transferred to the South African Navy and renamed SAS Walvisbaai. The ship was decommissioned in March 2001 and was sold to the Walt Disney Company in 2003 to be used in the Wes Anderson film The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Post filming the vessel was sold and was subsequently converted into a private yacht. Design and descriptionThe Ton-class coastal minesweepers were constructed with wooden hulls and almost all of their structure was made from aluminium to reduce their magnetic signature to aid sweeping magnetic mines.[2] The ships displaced {{convert|360|LT|t}} at standard load and {{convert|1940|LT|t}} at deep load. They had a length between perpendiculars of {{convert|153|ft|m|1}}, a beam of {{convert|27|ft|7|in|m|1}} and a draught of {{convert|8|ft|2|in|m|1}}.[3] The Tons were powered by two Napier Deltic diesel enginess, each driving one propeller shaft. The engines developed a total of {{convert|6000|bhp|lk=in}} and gave a maximum speed of {{convert|15|kn|lk=in}}. They had a range of {{convert|2300|nmi|lk=in}} at {{convert|13|kn}} and had a complement of 4 officers and 25 ratings. The Ton-class ships were armed with a single {{convert|40|mm|1|adj=on|sp=us}} Bofors and two {{convert|20|mm|1|adj=on|sp=us}} Oerlikon light AA guns on a single twin-gun mount.[4] Construction and careerPackington was launched by Harland and Wolff on 3 July 1958 at their Belfast shipyard.[3] She was transferred to the South African Navy before she was commissioned on 20 September 1959 under the name of SAS Walvisbaai. The ship was retired in March 2001 and sold to the Walt Disney Company in 2003 to be used as the R/V Belafonte in the Wes Anderson film The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.[5]Subsequently, she was sold to a private owner for $350,000.[6] In 2006 she began a lengthy conversion into a yacht in Dubai that saw her engines replaced by a pair of {{convert|1750|bhp|abbr=on}} V-12 Caterpillar 3512B diesel engines, her deck renewed and her interior completely revamped. The work was completed by 2012 and the ship was renamed Mojo.[7] Citations1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.shipspotting.com/gallery/photo.php?lid=2696529|title=MOJO|website=ShipSpotting|accessdate=23 July 2017}} 2. ^{{cite web|title=Ton History|url=http://tca2000.co.uk/?page_id=30|website=tca2000.co.uk|publisher=Ton Class Association|accessdate=26 October 2016}} 3. ^1 Moore, p. 401 4. ^{{cite web|title=Ton Technical Stuff|url=http://tca2000.co.uk/?page_id=75|website=tca2000.co.uk|publisher=Ton Class Association|accessdate=26 October 2016}} 5. ^{{cite web|title=Packington M1214|url=http://tca2000.co.uk/?page_id=1210|website=tca2000.co.uk|publisher=Ton Class Association|accessdate=26 October 2016}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Sold - Mine Sweeper|url=http://www.maritimesales.com/IC10.htm|website=www.maritimesales.com|accessdate=26 October 2016}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=Mojo yacht- Harland and Wolff Heavy Industries|publisher= SuperYacht Times|url=http://www.superyachttimes.com/yachts/details/5005|website=www.superyachttimes.com|accessdate=26 October 2016}} References
