Default Cape ships

Interesting pic Hanno,

The Rame Head looks to be the same class as 2 former Canadian Navy ships, HMCS CAPE BRETON and HMCS CAPE SCOTT. These ships eventually became Fleet Maintenance ships and were kept "alongside" as workshops. They are both gone now, but those who whose shadows fell upon HMC Dockyard Halifax and HMC Dockyard in Esquimalt would remember them. Without giving away the length of my "teeth", I actually bunked on HMCS CAPE SCOTT during my very early training in the fleet.

A pic of CAPE BRETON attached.

Cheers from Sunny Windsor
