HMS Northcoates

<HTML>I am trying to find further information on this Navy trawler. Specifically any original documents of plans of the ship. I would also be interested to hear from any of her crew. Below is what I know about HMS Northcoates already.

This Royal Navy trawler was built in 1918, and launched the following year at a cost of £21,000 under the name George Corten. Sold off in 1921 as part of the slimming down of Naval forces, she became a fishing trawler under the name of Zencon. In 1939, she took the name HMS Northcoates after being
requisitioned for mine sweeping in WW2
125ft x 25ft.
Position: 50 39.68N; 00 35.32W.
Sunk: 2 December, 1944, in heavy weather when under tow after engine failure.</HTML>
