	177k	Shown on July 23, 1942, the Perry is seen as modified to a high speed minesweeper. The conversion required a modified squared-off false stern to support sweeping davits and other sweeping gear: winch, paravanes, and kites. Note that the depth charge racks had to be angled to the sides to allow enough clearance for the depth charges. Circled changes include addition of 20mm guns and depth charge throwers.		-
