Anecdotes
Dave Pratt (British Columbia Nautical History Facebook Group 18/10/2016) reports that "I don't think that the Charmine C is afloat any longer. I heard that this vessel sank off the west coast of Vancouver Island. Last I saw her in Sointula years ago, this vessel was in rough shape." Bryon Taylor (Email to Nauticapedia 14/02/2019) states that "This vessel formed part of the pre-war Fishermen’s Reserve Fleet. This vessel participated in the 30 January – 25 February 1939 Fishermen’s Reserve Training Session. this vessel was however not mobilized for active duty during the Second World War."
