The Fishery Protection Squadron, comprising vessels such as the Fishery Protection Vessel HMS Mersey, HMS Clyde, and HMS Severn, plays a vital role in safeguarding our marine resources. These dedicated ships are equipped to enforce fishing regulations and protect our seas from illegal activities. Recently, the River Class Offshore Patrol Vessels - HMS Mersey and HMS Severn - showcased their capabilities during an exercise with the Fishery Protection Squadron. The Merlin Mk3s proved their mettle as they seamlessly navigated through a day-long transit in Gibraltar. HMS Tyne also joined forces with her sister ships on this exercise, demonstrating their agility by making sharp turns while maintaining control. This display of precision highlighted the squadron's commitment to ensuring the safety of our fisheries. Not limited to domestic waters alone, these vessels have ventured beyond borders too. For instance, HMS Mersey embarked on a mission to Trinidad where she collaborated with local authorities to combat illegal fishing activities in Caribbean waters. With its state-of-the-art technology and highly skilled crew members, the Fishery Patrol Vessel HMS Severn has become synonymous with effective surveillance and protection against unauthorized fishing practices. As part of the Fishery Protection Squadron fleet, it continues to uphold maritime law enforcement across vast expanses of ocean. The River Class Offshore Patrol Vessels - including both HMS Mersey and HMS Severn - serve as stalwarts in defending our marine ecosystems against threats that could jeopardize sustainable fishing practices. Their presence acts as a deterrent for those who seek to exploit our precious natural resources unlawfully. Whether it be patrolling domestic or international waters or collaborating with other nations' maritime forces for joint exercises like those witnessed recently in Gibraltar – the Fishery Protection Squadron remains steadfastly committed to preserving our fish stocks and protecting marine life for generations to come.
