Anecdotes

Neil Gower (Email to Nauticapedia 06/07/2024) states "You mention it was owned by Robert Harcourt. That may well be legally but I am told by Gordon Gill that this tug was owned or at least operated by YT (Yellowknife Transportation). Gordon refers to Earl Harcourt as majority owner but he doesn't know if that is the same person as Robert Harcourt. Gordon said Earl Harcourt was the captain of this tug at least for the summer Gordon was the engineer. He doesn't recall which year. "It was the year they cut the trees for the phone line to Inuvik"."
