HMS Wave, an Algerine Class Minesweeper, built by Lobnitz and Co, Renfrew in 1944, she was broken up in 1962

On 30 September 1952 she dragged her anchor and went aground between St Ives Harbour and Porthminster beach in a 60 mph gale. All the crew were saved by breeches buoy. She was refloated and towed to Devonport.

It could be my imagination but I believe the two speckled areas in the water just below the waves are sea lions. There was a covey of them out there below the pullout just south of Heceta Head Lighthouse.
