Great thanks for these pics.
i wonder what is her use now : house boat ?
Hope her fate will be better than the BMD (also ex-canadian) which stayed a long time in this place.

Judging by where she was placed I am assuming she was probably acquired by the gentleman who previously owned Point Alert and Point Responder. If I have to guess she will probably be repaired and used for the odd cargo runs within the islands, then eventually sold to interests in Guyana. ( Seem to be the pattern )
Yes its sad what happened to BMD, always thought she would have been put to good use dredging the harbour but instead she rusted away. Nice picture of her by the way, I always look forward to some of your old photos
