RMAS Fiona was a Felicity-class water tractor, built in 1973 by Hancocks. She displaced 80 tons, and was powered by a single Voith-Schneider propeller which generated 600 bhp and gave her a maximum speed of 10 knots.[1] In 2007, she was placed on the Ministry of Defence Disposal Sales Agency website for £70,000.[2]
