Historische Notizen
Bob Williams stated (01/08/2016) British Columbia Nautical History Facebook Group that "this vessel was around 37 feet long with a flat stern until Benson Brothers added 8 feet to her with a conventional troller stern.
They didn't go far enough forward with the extension and it left her a little narrow from mid ships back.When this vessel was first launched in Lund this vessellay over until they put 5 tons of ballast in her. This vessel would always lay over a the sight of a wave, but all in all could handle any sea you got caught in. This vessel drew 6 1/2' empty. Had a 1-71 to start with and fished cod around Campbell River. Had a 3-71 when I had her and a 4-71 when I saw hat last. Galley and two bunks below with skipper bunk in the wheelhouse. C.
