  HMS Trafalgar (S107)
HMS Trafalgar (S107) is a Trafalgar-class submarine of the Royal Navy.
In November 2002, Trafalgar ran aground close to Skye, causing £5 million worth of damage to her hull and injuring three sailors.
She was traveling 50 metres below the surface at more than 14 knots when Lieutenant-Commander Tim Green, a student in the "Perisher" course for new submarine commanders, ordered a course change that took her onto the rocks at Fladda Chuain, a small but well-charted islet.
