Is this the name of the beached ship on its bow? If so, it would seem it was a Chinese Navy ship. For a short period of time the then ROC Navy name their boats starting with 海 and associate it with a certain creature。 鶖 is a bird﹐ making it 海鶖艦. I found in Wiki they have another called 海虎艦。The word 艦 simply means a navy vassel.
Don't know the proper name of 鶖 in English as yet. Would have to look it up later.

My two cents,
