She was a minesweeper during WW2. The torpedo shaped objects are Oropese floats. They floated a special cutting cable that was submerged behind the boat. The lines attached to the mines were cut, then the mines floated to the surface. Specially trained marksmen would then shoot them to detonate them.

Yeah all in Williamstown. Ever since I got my first camera as a kid I have been taking photos constantly. I have 3 terabyte of them on this desk alone and thats just part of it! I also do work for pub bands etc doing photo shoots and live gigs. And also for several urban exploration groups! I'll never run out of submissions!
