Anecdotes

On January 2, 2022 this vessel was reported as having sank at her berth in Bella Coola "a few days earlier". Peter Shaughnessy (Email to Nauticapedia 155206) states that "At this time still sitting on the bottom in Bella Coola Harbour awaiting disposal. The cause of the sinking is not known as far as I have heard. Apparently, divers could not identify the problem. The cause may never be known because they intend to break it up while still submerged as they did with the Pacific Grizzly a few years ago and only a few meters from this sinking."
