Yup...Canadian Built but if not mistaken.....

I do believe she was built in the east New Foundland in the late 50's She spent some yrs there on the Atlantic. Then was sailed around the horn up to B.C. in the mid. or late 60's may have been mid 70's can't really recall.
But when ever it was the yrs I spent on her where some of the best. Crew of 18

Hi longlast.... I could be wrong but I just went by this information which said Builder was Yarrows Shipyard Ltd., Victoria, BC.

That's the one Thank's for rebootting the memory banks. I was a bit out on the date she was built also. Stand corrected Built in 1968 North Van was yearly refit. It's been 33 yrs.

Thank's again for the reboot blacktop

This is a pic of her when I was aboard her late 70's mid 80's (Fisheries)west cost

The pic I just posted is when she was commissioned to Federal Fisheries wild life and game from cost guard.
Thats why she's painted horizon gray. I knew that because we got our pay half from fisheries and the other half from cost guard. I didn't know she was recommissioned back to cost guard. Thanks for looking that up mate
