Anecdotes
David Morris reports that "I have been the owner from 2001 to the present (2019). In these years I have had a large amount of work done to convert her from a troller/gill netter to a cruising liveaboad including re powering and the addition of an aft cabin on the footprint of the old fish hold. This vessel is now my home in Quathiaski Cove, on Quadra Island."
