歴史的注記
On December 20, 1964 the tug Lordel under Captain James Boyd burned and exploded in Vancouver Harbour under the Second Narrows Bridge. Boyd and crewman Rene Beulieu escaped by paddling their life raft with their hands and feet to escape the burning wreck before it exploded.
They were passing under the bridge at 5:00 pm when they saw smoke coming from the cabin.
They had just taken on fuel previously and the fire was so intense that even the life raft was burning. The fire was extinguished by the Vancouver Fireboat. This vessel was declared a total loss.
