Curve of Time in Powell River

Originally named Moby Dick, this ship was built in Holland by D. En Joh Boot N.V.  in 1959.

She fished commercially as a side trawler until 1984 at which time she was purchased by the Greenpeace organization, campaigned in Europe, crossed the Atlantic three times and finally arrived on the west coast of BC via the Panama Canal where she continued her history with Greenpeace.  In the fall of 1997 Moby Dick was purchased by Due West Charters and renamed the Curve of Time.
