Argonaut II Tours
About this event
Walk the decks of a true Pacific Northwest icon! Built in Vancouver in 1922, the 73-foot wooden vessel Argonaut II has spent over a century on our waters. Originally launched as the corporate yacht Greta M, she was acquired by the United Church of Canada in 1934 and rechristened the Thomas Crosby IV. For over 30 years, she served as a crucial lifeline to more than 50 remote Northern BC ports of call, visiting isolated lighthouses, canneries, logging camps, and First Nations villages. During this era, she was skippered by the renowned Haida leader Rev.
