As well as the Magnet, a sister ship, RMAS Lodestone was built by Cleland in 1980.

The Magnet class was developed to replace the Ham-class minesweepers that had been converted for degaussing. They are 828 tons gross register tonnage (GRT) and have a top speed of 14 knots (26 km/h; 16 mph). They measure 55 metres (180 ft 5 in) long with a beam of 12 metres (39 ft 4 in) and a draught of 4 metres (13 ft 1 in).[1]
