Harbour Defence Motor Launch 1321 (HDML 1321) is known for her extraordinary service during WW2 behind enemy lines with Z Special Forces. During the 1950's HDML 1321 was used as a training ship and renamed Rushcutter. In 1971 she was sold to a private owner. HDML 1321 sank at her moorings in Darwin Harbour at 7.55am 19 October 2016 and efforts to save her for future generations is underway.

Progress Report 27 October

Historic WWII Ship 1321

 We're told that discussion became a little intense with the Port Authority and the Owners (Ms Geddes), with the port requiring the owners to remove the vessel, HDML 1321, otherwise the administration would step in and, if need be use explosives to prevent the boat becoming a navigation hazard. 

Luke Gosling, MP, was able to bring calm to further discussions and a plan is now being formulated.
