Two ships have carried the name MV Sir John Cass. The first, commissioned in May 1940, as HMS
ML 252 a Fairmile B torpedo boat, was converted after the Second World War and was used by the Sir John Cass School of Navigation for radar training.

I did my 2nd. mates radar training on the first vessel, which, if I remember correctly was powered by 2 Delta engines, one for each prop. Rolls Royce rings a bell as the manufacturer, although that distant memory could easily be corrected.
