HMCS Westmount (pennant J318) was a Bangor-class minesweeper that served with the Royal Canadian Navy during the Second World War.
The engines produced a total of 2,400 indicated horsepower (1,800 kW) and gave a maximum speed of 16.5 knots (30.6 km/h; 19.0 mph).
[3] Westmount was armed with a single quick-firing (QF) 12-pounder (3 in (76 mm)) 12 cwt HA gun mounted forward.
[3][6] Westmount was equipped with LL and SA minesweeping gear to clear both magnetic and acoustic naval mines.
Other than a refit at Lunenburg, Nova Scotia that took from February to April 1945, Westmount remained on the Atlantic Canada coast for the remainder of the war.
[9] However, the ship never recommissioned and remained in reserve until 29 March 1958 when Westmount was formally transferred to the Turkish Navy.
[8][10] Renamed Bornova (also spelled Bor Nova) by the Turkish Navy, the vessel remained in service until 1972 when it was discarded.
