HMS Evelyn Rose?

I came across this photo of what I think is the Evelyn Rose. If anyone recognises it and can confirm or otherwise I would be very interested.

It's difficult to judge from the picture but I'm pretty certain that's not Evelyn Rose. (http://www.fleetwood-trawlers.info/inde ... -rose-gy9/) Evelyn Rose was fitted with boat deck and forecastle.

The vessel in the photograph looks more like a small M/S Whaler perhaps?

Thanks. I wonder what she was called. Dad's record seems to list mainly shore bases. Could it have been the Minesweeping Drifter 'Industry'. Dad was at HMS Flora from May 42 to Oct 43.

It does look more like an old steam drifter going by the shape of the casing, dont know the proper spelling
