Sail forth - steer for the deep waters only, Reckless O soul, exploring, I with thee and thou with me, For we are bound where mariner has not yet dared to go, And we will risk the ship, ourselves and all.
 

  Egyptian Red Sea - Volume One   

 

This DVD is the first in a series of DVDs which will be made available while exploration of the Red Sea expands.

 

HMS Myngs was launched in 1943 and then commissioned into the Royal Navy in 1944.  With World War II coming to an end the only combat action that the Myngs was involved in was off the coast of Norway.  

At the end of the war HMS Myngs joined a peacetime navy and spent most of it’s service with the Mediterranean fleet and in 1955 was decommissioned and sold to the Egyptian Navy as El Qaher. 

El Qaher served the Egyptian Navy as an anti submarine destroyer but it’s career came to an abrupt end when in 1970 Israeli Jets bombed her and sent her to the bottom. 

Join a team of divers and cameraman on a tour of HMS Myngs/El Qaher and other dive sites including SS Turbo in the Red Sea.

The wreck of HMS Myngs/El Qaher appeared in a feature in Diver Magazine in Nov 2007.
