HMAS Adelaide Decommissioning & Scuttling

The ex-HMAS Adelaide has settled in her final resting place on the bottom of the sea, 1.8 kilometres off Avoca beach on the New South Wales central coast after a textbook scuttling carried out by McMahon Services. The scuttling event was seen by millions around Australia and the globe, however few saw the extensive amount of work undertaken by McMahon Services to prepare the 138-metre vessel for the historic occasion.
