释义 |
From 1905 to 1912 Squirrel was nominally tender for {{HMS|President||6}} and possibly {{HMS|Halcyon||6}}, and in October 1906 she was recorded as being under the command of Chief Officer C H Coleman.[1] From 1914 to 1917 she was a tender to {{HMS|Vivid||6}}, and in February 1914 she was under the command of Chief Officer James B Newman.[1] The coastguard role continued until 1917, when she became a cable vessel.[1][2] Surplus to requirements, Squirrel was sold on 16 November 1921 to the Sunderland Pilotage Authority for conversion to the pilot tender Vedra.[2][4] Registered in 1923 at Sunderland with Official Number 146924, she was measured as 158 GRT and 52 NRT.[5] In the mid-1930s several attempts were made to sell Vedra, and in 1936 Thomas Young & Sons (Shipbreakers) Ltd purchased her for local demolition.[4] However, she was resold to Captain Vernon Sewell for use during the making of the Michael Powell film The Edge of the World in Scotland during 1937.[6] Thereafter Vedra was sold to foreign owners and renamed, but again became a British ship in 1938 as the yacht Sea-Serpent, registered at Famagusta, Cyprus, then a British colony.[7] Sea-Serpent was reported sunk on 22 April 1941 by German aircraft between Syros and Souda.[8] References1. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web|url=http://www.nmm.ac.uk/upload/pdf/Warship_Histories_Vessels_x.pdf|archive-url=http://webarchive.nationalarchives.gov.uk/20110802041613/http://www.nmm.ac.uk/upload/pdf/Warship_Histories_Vessels_x.pdf|dead-url=yes|archive-date=2 August 2011|title=NMM, vessel ID 376279|work=Warship Histories, vol x|publisher=National Maritime Museum|accessdate=2 August 2011}} 2. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 {{cite book | title=Ships of the Royal Navy: the Complete Record of all Fighting Ships of the Royal Navy from the 15th Century to the Present | publisher=Casemate | author=Colledge, James | year=2010 | pages=382 | isbn=9781935149071}} 3. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|title=Jane's Fighting Ships of World War I|date=1919|publisher=Jane's Publishing Company|isbn=1 85170 378 0|page=93|edition=Facsimile 2001}} 4. ^1 {{cite news|title=Vedra sailed to edge of world|url=http://www.sunderlandecho.com/opinion/columnists/vedra-sailed-to-edge-of-world-1-1129723|accessdate=12 January 2016|work=Sunderland Echo|date=31 January 2007}} 5. ^{{cite book|title=Mercantile Navy List|date=1930|publisher=Eyre & Spottiswood|location=London|page=567|url=http://www.crewlist.org.uk/data/viewimages.php?year=1930&name=VEDRA&page=567&imagesource=CLIP%C2%A0images|accessdate=12 January 2016}} 6. ^{{cite book|last1=Powell|first1=Michael|title=200,000 Feet: The Edge of the World|date=1938|publisher=E P Dutton & Company|location=New York|page=206}} 7. ^{{cite book|title=Mercantile Navy List|date=1940|publisher=Eyre & Spottiswoode|location=London|page=346|url=http://www.crewlist.org.uk/data/viewimages.php?year=1940&name=SEA%20SERPENT&page=346&imagesource=CLIP%C2%A0images|accessdate=12 January 2016}} 8. ^{{cite book|last1=Halaris|first1=Dimitris|title=Τα Κατοχικά (The holder)|date=1997|publisher=S.
