<HTML>Yngvi,

HMS Pincher was an Algerine class minesweeper. She was turbine-engined, built by Harland & Wolff, and launched on August 19, 1943. She was broken up at Dunston in 1962.

HMS Recruit was also an Algerine class minesweeper. She was turbine-engined, built by Harland & Wolff, and launched on October 26, 1943. She was broken up at Baarrow in 1965.

Algerines were of 940-980 tons, 225 feet oa length, and 35.5 feet beam. Top speed was 16.5 knots.

I don't immediately have anything on Evadne. I have not checked the DANFS yet though.

Hope this helps,

Michael</HTML>
