HMS Chiddingfold (M37) is a Hunt-class mine countermeasures vessel launched in 1983. HMS Bangor is a Sandown-class minehunter commissioned by the Royal Navy in 1999. She has a fibreglass hull, designed to minimise risk to magnetic mines, but not collisions with her sister Chiddingfold.
Sadly, it wasn't the first!
It's only an island if you look at it from the water.
