Notes historiques

Larry Peck (Email to Nauticapedia 07/01/2025) stated "there was originally a Volvo Diesel that was changed out by Lodo very early on and replaced by the Isuzu that lasted forever... then by me with same model rebuild in 1995. Also know that Bruigom, from Comox, came down to stay with Lodo’s family and build the vessel at Lodo's place in View Royal BC Canada." "In 1968-1986 this vessel sailed from Victoria BC to Alaska every summer.

In 1989-2001 she undertook sailing tours and charters out of Cowichan Bay BC Canada.

In 2002-2010 she sailed offshore to the East Coast and Caribbean via Panama."
