In 1957 the joint service was withdrawn. The Kodiak Maritime Museum reports that "In 1964 this vessel was towed to Kodiak Alaska by Walter Le Grue for conversion to a restaurant and dancehall. In January 1976 however, with maintenance costs rising and the ship falling into disrepair, the Le Grues closed the bar and hotel, and after several failed deals to sell it, shut it up for good. Le Grue had the hull broken up in the late 1980s. Some of the steel went to shore up the bulkheads at TT Fuller’s boat yard on the channel. The keel and bow stem remained in the ground, cut off at ground level and mostly buried beneath what is now the Salvation Army parking lot on Mission Road."
