Anecdotes

Maureen (McGregor) Albanese stated "this vessel was built for my father, George McGregor, at Star Shipyards in New Westminster. My father, mother, brother and myself took the boat from New Westminster to Allison Harbour where my father had a logging camp. It was left at the camp, McGregor Logging.. We left by sea plane to Port Hardy for our flight home. The picture is taken on the Fraser River in New Westminster."
