This Q-ship was the STARMOUNT (LtCdr. Dane), 2485 g.r.t.

She fired two separate torpedoes against U 54 of which one hit the german U-boat but failed to explode.

This incident later that day was reported by U 54 "to all U-boats", but the subsequent sinking of this Q-ship by an other U-Boat obviously is nothing more than an good tale :-)
