Historical Notes
Tony Hartling (British Columbia Nautical History Facebook Group 23/07/2019) stated that "We bought her in 2017 and still live aboard." Mike Pearson (British Columbia Nuatical History Facebook Group 24/07/2019) stated that "This vessel piled up hard on Warrior Rocks. The crew was asleep at the wheel I believe. Fred Chandler owned it at the time and this vessel was on the hard for sometime. Freddy Letts helped Mike rebuild the woodwork that was destroyed in the impact with Canada. Both Freds are not with us anymore.
They were real nice guys." Scott Kristmanson (British Columbia Nautical History Facebook Group 24/07/2019) stated that "A couple years before Warrior Rocks the same thing happened in Eddie Pass area, but wasn’t wrote off by Insurance Co. This vessel was sunk and put back together at McLean’s Shipyard in Prince Rupert BC Canada."
