历史记录

Dave Bartle (British Columbia Nautical History Facebook Group 23/02/2019) states that "Friday 13 February 1959. In command of Capt. Warren Waterman the Henry Foss came to a "grinding and abrupt stop on a rock near Beaver Point on Salt Spring Island. There was a 50-knot gale blowing and the seas extremely rough. The Henry Foss overturned and sank in 150-ft of water, throwing all seven men into the cold and rough water of Swanson Channel." Two men were pulled from the water. The Chief Engineer survived the exposure but deckhand Richard Lothian died of exposure after reaching the hospital. The loss of the Henry Foss's six men was the most painful calamity in the Foss' long history of tug boating; the tug was not salvaged. Lost were: Capt. Warren Waterman; Chief Mate Lawrence Berg; Assistant Engineer, Martin Gullstein; Deckhand, Oswald H. Sorenson; Cook, Erick W. Danielson; Richard Lothian."
