Ex Inshore Minesweeper "Tresham" she was converted to a training ship in 1968 and then refitted by Vosper Thornycroft in 1993 to continue training sea cadets. And now under refit during last three years in a traditionnal shipyard. Hull, deck, have been updated. Her engines have been checked and a lot of mechanical work done, and are in good running order, the generator was repaired, electricity has been updated. New automatic bilge pumps New external painting has been done to keep the elements at bay. All the heavy and expensive work has been done. Actually she is just looking for new accomodations.
