Former RMAS Aberdovey was the lead vessel of the RMAS Aberdovey Class of Naval Fleet Tenders.
Aberdovey was RMAS but only for a short period, she was the Royal Marines training ship and as she was commanded by a serving officer she was uniquely HMFT Aberdovey.
In her later years in-service she was utilised as a Sea Cadet Corps Training Vessel once based in Portsmouth.
Photographed here on on the Gare Loch in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It is the nearest town to the HMNB Clyde naval base. Garelochhead lies 7 miles northwest of Helensburgh. Loch Lomond is a few miles to the east, and Loch Long to the west.

In the cold, fog and snow, waiting for the ski lift to take you to a new exciting descent, at more than 100 km/h!
Living life to the fullest while being in peace, silence and fullness, all this with a lot of extraordinary sensations!
The joys that ski descents can provide are incomparable to all other experiences.
Everyone experiences it as they wish, at their own pace, the only time when everyone is equal at this level is sitting on the RMA seats!
Some pictures taken by the late Michael Cleary. 1980 I believe.
A very smart looking RMA. Has it just had a repaint? That is Chiswick Works.
Quite a shock to see this parked up on a fairly ordinary street! This beautiful old post war car is I believe a Riley RMA, dating from 1950.
Especially shocking is to see one in this kind of condition, with rust patches everywhere, however I really like it looking like this, and just hope it's mechanically reliable and strong! This colour is brilliant, and I imagine this is what they would've looked like in the 60s. I bet most RMA survivors are in perfect showroom condition, so I rather like this one, and a great colour too. Taxed into 2018 happily, I would think most cars of this vintage are in fairly safe hands?
Here at Portsmouth, we see FOXHOUND, a ‘Dog’ class tug originally built for the Royal Maritime Auxiliary Service (RMAS)
Sadly, I have no notes of when I took this photo, but judging by the Network SouthEast liveried train which can just be seen in the background, I would hazard a guess at late 1980`s, maybe early 90`s.

هل الهلال
هل الهلال واذن بمسجد الحي
الله اكبر واندحر كل شيطان
اكسب فضل ربك ولا تكون خسران
ذكر وتلاوة تالي الليل ويدي
مرفوعة ترجيك يالله يا رحمان
صوموا تصحوا يذكر الشي بالشي
صحة لجسمك ثم طاعة ورضون

The RMs style of construction made such conversions relatively easy. This one was seen in Lisbon as recently as 1999!

The future RMAS CAPABLE on the building slip at Richard Dunston at Hessle on 28 June 1981, just 5 days before her launching.
I remember when this was the local hangout malt shop with booths and stools at the long counter. Back in the early 1950s there was a dairy in the back that bottled milk. It caught fire one day and never opened again.

Tugs of the class were fitted for firefighting, salvage and oil pollution spraying. Not fitted with towing winches.
The electric drive provided a very quick response to the direct bridge controls and made these tugs easy to handle.
The masts could be lowered, by hand turning gear, to rest between the funnels when working under the overhang of aircraft carriers.

The trend to fit blind boxes to RMAs began in late 1986/early 1987 with the sightseeing RMAs at Battersea which received indicators from scrap RCLs.
The vehicles concerned were RMA *15 (11), *22 (45), 25 (53), 26 (60), *51 (36) & 65 (65).
