HMAS Bonthorpe (TR-8) was originally a Castle-class trawler/TR series minesweeping trawler TR-10 of the Royal Canadian Navy in World War I. Bonthorpe was owned and operated by Albany Tug Company. On 27 November 1939, or 5 February 1940 Bonthorpe was requisitioned by the Royal Australian Navy for use as an anti-submarine or minesweeping naval trawler. She was decommissioned on 17 February 1945 and was reconverted to a trawler before becoming stranded at Cairns Inlet, Queensland in 1959.
