Never come across this ship before has any other Member?

"HMS Challenger (K07) in 1985. The £80m diving support vessel served only 6 years in the RN before being sold off in the cuts frenzy."

I think Ivor previously posted one of her photos on the ship identification thread.
Here are a few more of HMS Challenger, some of which may have been posted on the old WNSF.
