HMAS Otama finally removed from Western Port Bay

[BradG]

I believe the plan is to scrap her. An unpopular opinion, but she was an eyesore, decaying and sinking; it was only a matter of time before the other ballast tank sprang a leak and she went to the bottom. That or she could have broken away from her mooring lines and gone drifting around the bay.

Here's some drone footage of her finally out of the water. She's in pretty poor condition.
