Story

This yacht, power-cruiser was built in 1981 by Canoe Cove Manufacturing Ltd. in Sidney, BC.

Historical Notes

Chris Whitehead (British Columbia Nautical History Facebook Group 12/07/2022) stated "Aqua Miss has a rich history and was one of only 3 built with reverse windows. Jimmy Flett the owner of Aqua-Chem passed away around 2020. It’s 2nd owner was Les Pedersen, attorney general for the in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Unfortunately Les’s children neglected her in Les’s later years causing the 3rd owner, Dick Reitenbach to do an extensive refit by Canoe Coves marine yard. This vessel is now a beautiful vessel even better that original."
