HMAS Kuttabul

In this episode we welcome Captain (RAN), Viktor Pilicic to the series to discuss the history of HMAS Kuttabul. Host of Run Ashore, Mark Cooper and Viktor explore the history of HMAS Kuttabul, it's importance to the Royal Australian Navy and why it's location is significant. Three facts from this episode: HMAS Kuttabul is a Royal Australian Navy (RAN) base located in Potts Point in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. There are around 1500 personnel at HMAS Kuttabul. The base is named for the steam ferry HMAS Kuttabul that was sunk while docked at Garden Island during a Japanese midget submarine attack on Sydney Harbour in 1942. Although Kuttabul is the main administrative part of Fleet Base East, Fleet Base East is also responsible for the Mine Counter Measures forces of the RAN stationed on the east coast.
