Should have added a bit more info - the Alarm-class torpedo gunboat was the penultimate class of torpedo gunboat built for the Royal Navy. The class was contemporary with the early torpedo boat destroyers, which were faster and better suited to accompanying the battlefleet. By World War I the class had either been sold, converted to submarine depot ships or minesweepers, or reduced to harbour service. Three of the class were lost during World War I while serving in the minesweeping role, including HMS Jason.

 

Next guess:  Arklow Castle?

Cheers,
 
Jason


"Which it will be ready when it is ready!"
 
In the shipyard:

HMS Jason (c.1794: Artois Class 38 gun frigate)

Queen Anne Royal Barge (c.1700)

Finished:

HMS Snake (c.1797: Cruizer Class, ship rigged sloop)

You may have answered your own question Jan  (they are Jason Class,  MSW member Beef Wellington, who was playing earlier his name is 'Jason' and the answer to his last 2 ship questions were all  'Jason' !)

 

I do believe you have the ships name with your last post 'Wolves'... her name of course is HMS Wolverine

 

Over to you Jan..

 

Cinema time for me so I must absent myself for a while.. best of luck guys!

I may be wrong Eamonn(are you playing this in the cinema?),and quite often am,but I am thinking evacuation,so thinking Dunkirk or possibly Gallipoli?
