<br /><b>General Comments:</b>
<br />
<br />IMO for Sir Humphrey Gilbert confirmed in Miramar Ship Index
<br />(Marilynn Sorensen 02/06/2014 00:00:00)<br />
<br />
<br />DFO has some 1998 data associated with this ship; currently investigating how that is possible
<br />(Mathieu Ouellet 23/05/2014 00:00:00)<br />
<br />
<br />Wikipedia gives a length of 238 ft; the CCG page gives 220 ft. 238 ft would be 72.58 m
<br />(Mathieu Ouellet 23/05/2014 00:00:00)<br />
<br />
<br />It seems that after it was sold, in 1986, the ship kept its name and remained active until 2001. DFO has data from 1999.
