Ex HMAS Adelaide Scuttling
Project Profile Ex HMAS Adelaide Scuttling Client NSW Land & Property Management Authority Location Glebe Island Wharf No. 2, Sydney Harbour, New South Wales Duration 18 months, 2011 Contract Scuttling of Ex HMAS Adelaide Vessel for use as an Artificial Reef Cost $6.5 Million Project Overview Stripping and preparation of former war ship to a virtual skeleton and scuttling off the NSW mid coast. This ship participated in the 1990/91 Gulf War, peacekeeping operations in East Timor in 1999 and deployed to the Arabian Gulf as part of the International Coalition against Terrorism in 2001 and 2004. She was Australia’s first guided-missile frigate and was home-ported in Western Australia. McMahon Services were contracted by NSW Land & Property Management Authority to prepare the vessel for scuttling off the NSW mid coast. This was an enormous task – stripping a fully operational war ship to make it a virtual skeleton. All environmental hazards required total removal. We had to develop methods to make the vessel do what it was never design to do…sink. The vessel was littered with specially cut holes to let water in and air out when it was scuttled. The main task was to penetrate bulkheads and clearing pathways through the vessel so that divers had enough room to manoeuvre through safe thoroughfares.

Only 30 feet deep out to 5 miles, many treacherous and shifting sandbars. Slide3 Since 16th C thousands of ships visit the coast for exploration, colonization, war and commerce. Many went ashore on the treacherous shoals, and sank for various reasons in the more than 3000 square miles of waterways and rivers, eventually becoming state-owned resources. Slide 4 Among the countless wrecked watercraft in State waters lies a body of naval vessels spanning the years from the American Revolution to modern times. These wrecks are still owned by the Department of the Navy, which maintains custody of all US Navy vessels not specifically relinquished by an act of Congress no matter where they are located in the world. Navy has turned to the states as co-stewards to help in developing management plans for these national treasures. -

HMAS Adelaide unexpectedly took a lead role in the amphibious phase of RIMPAC when the US Navy assault ship planned for that role suffered mechanical problems and remained in Pearl Harbour for most of the exercise. HMAS Adelaide led HMA Ships Success, Melbourne and Toowoomba across the Pacific to take part in this major exercise which involved 25 nations, 46 surface ships, five submarines, 17 land forces, and more than 200 aircraft and 25 000 personnel.

Issue 48, December 2020
From the President Welcome to this edition of Call the Hands, our last in the Society’s 50th anniversary year. It includes a variety of short articles which are connected through various themes including the RAN’s first ship, HMAS Parramatta (I) and her namesakes. Another connection is the shared anniversary of the Naval Association of Australia (NAA) celebrating its 100th anniversary. Accordingly, we acknowledge our many readers who are members of the NAA. Their service in the RAN (past and present) has contributed to the history of Australia’s great Navy. The Society’s close connection with Parramatta (I) stems from the not insignificant project to recover her bow and stern sections from a Hawksbury River mudflat. These sections are now prominently displayed in Sydney. Additional information about this fascinating project recently came to light and has been published in the December Naval Historical Review now being distributed to members. We also feature a recent NAA commemorative service for HMAS Parramatta (II) and recognition of the commissioning commanding officer of HMAS Parramatta (III), Rear Admiral Guy Griffiths RAN, Rtd. Many interesting and sometimes obscure naval stories remain untold. Occasional paper 97 is a good example. It is the story of a small party of sailors landed in Arnhem Land from HMAS Fremantle (I) in 1958 to observe Japanese pearl fishing operations. This story was shared by Eric Deshon with Australian National Maritime Museum’s oral history volunteers and published in the ANMM’s volunteer newsletter ‘All Hands’ in June 2018. Recording historic events on canvas has been a traditional art form which continues today.
