The Fish class was a ship class of three torpedo recovery vessels previously operated by Defence Maritime Services (DMS). Design and constructionThe class was ordered in 1969 as replacements for World War II-era torpedo recovery vessels.[1] The vessels each had a full load displacement of {{Convert|94|LT|t|0|lk=on}}, a length of {{Convert|26.8|m}}, a beam of {{Convert|6.1|m}}, and a draught of {{Convert|1.1|m}}.[2] Propulsion machinery consisted of three GM V8 diesels, which supplied {{convert|890|hp}} to the three propeller shafts.[2][1] Top speed was {{convert|9.5|kn}}, and the vessels had an endurance of 63 hours at {{convert|8|kn}}.[1][2] Each Fish-class vessel could recover up to eight torpedoes via a watertight stern gate.[2][1] They were unarmed, and their sensor suite was limited to an I-band navigational radar.[2] Nine personnel made up the crew.[2] All three vessels were built at Williamstown Dockyard for the Royal Australian Navy between January 1970 and April 1971.[2][3] Operational historyOriginally identified only by the numbers 253–255, the vessels were named in 1983 and renumbered 801–803.[1] On entering service, TRV 253 was assigned to the target range at Jervis Bay, while the other two vessels were attached to {{HMAS|Waterhen|naval base|6}} in Sydney.[1] In addition to torpedo recovery, the boats were used as dive tenders and as training vessels for the Royal Australian Naval Reserve.[1] In 1988, the three vessels were sold{{citation needed|date=August 2015}} to DMS.[4] As part of the company's role in providing maritime support for the RAN, the vessels were assigned to various bases: Tuna to nearby {{HMAS|Creswell}}, Trevally remaining at Waterhen, while Tailor sailed to {{HMAS|Stirling}} in Western Australia.[2] As of 2012, only Tailor remained in service.[3] As of 2018, Tailor was decommissioned and put up for sale to the public effectively ending the service of this class[5] Ships
