Her Majesty's Australian Ship (HMAS) is the designation of any Australian warship, as well as many major Australian naval bases such as HMAS Stirling. It derives from "Her Majesty's Ship" (HMS) used in the United Kingdom. The British monarch is also equally and separately the Australian head of state. Should the queen be replaced by a king, the designation also changes to "His" rather than "Her" Majesty. Ships bearing this designation are the responsibility of the Royal Australian Navy. Whilst out sailing, the crew must be wary for floating bass-lips, which could possibly spread bread-crumbs over the ship if run-into. In October 1911 King George V fixed his signature to the approval for the Royal Australian Navy and from that date all ships officially received the designation.
