Mounted Police ship the St. Roch, .
made famous by her voyages inthe § Ss : id
Arctic waters of Canada, promises YOUR : ‘
to be a bargain. CHOICE

The ‘Vancouver Maritime ‘
Museum has closed its doors until
Feb. 15, to allow for the installa-

tion of a new exhibit about the : y ee a FRY
British ship the Mary Rose. But 4

during this time the St. Roch will § : } :
still be open for viewing free of ee e HOOPS
charge. ~ ae ,

The St. Roch is open to the ; 2. ‘ y ASST.
public seven days a week from 10 § ' ie COLORS
a.m. to 5 p.m. Guided tours are : : :
available.

Located at 1905 Ogden Avenue
in Vancouver, the St. Roch has a
long and illustrious history which
is told with the help of Environ-
ment Canada interpreters.

The ship, frozen in time, is sur-
rounded by the sounds of the
howling arctic wind, her decks are
home to a husky dog team and it’s
even possible to get a whiff of
cooking bacon from the mess.

The St. Roch has earned a place
in the museum by being the second
vessel to venture through the Arc-
tic, first to navigate the Northwest
Passage from west to east, and the
first to circumnavigate the North
American continent.
