Unlike the ships that were purposely sunk to create one of the breakwaters protecting Kelsey Bay at Sayward, this ship sank in the marina by accident of some sort.
Originally built as the Malaspina Voyageur, this unlucky tug was destroyed in a fire, and was rebuilt in 1959 . She went on to sink at dock in Fraser River December 2008, written off by insurance company, and rebuilt as the Lady Jodi.
I shot these on 22 March 2015.
