Notas históricas
This vessel was abandoned at Britannia Beach BC Canada. The Administrator of the Ship-source Oil Pollution Fund takes the position that the vessel belongs to the Province of British Colombia, since the previous owners, the Maritime Heritage Society of Vancouver, has ceased to exist and the assets of the Society were transferred to the Province. On February 11, 2014, Coast Guard informed the Administrator that the vessel had been moved from Britannia Beach to Mission, British Columbia, for dismantling.
In 2018 Jordan Rowan completed the dismantling process. Colin Henthorne (Email to Nauticapedia 27/12/2018) states that "The Port of Vancouver has issued a temporary work order to complete the “de-construction” of the Tyee Princess (North Arm, Fraser River)."
