The *Gelsina* was a steam trawler requisitioned by the Royal Navy in 1917 for service during World War I. It was lost in the North Sea in 1917, likely due to enemy action or mine strike, with no survivors reported; its loss contributed to the wartime effort of converting fishing vessels for naval use.
