'It's got the strongest hull, it's unsinkable!'
A 2004 lifeboat from the BC Ferries fleet is being sold off. Current owner Michael Rayne bought it a couple of years ago; a guy he knows is contracted by BC Ferries to sell their used things; he believes it was one of the lifeboats on the Queen of Cumberland.
"I used to take school groups out, families, community groups, things like that," he tells V.I.A., noting he's shut things down for the winter. "It's been a bit of a floating classroom."And it's made to survive. It can hold 60 people and supplies for them for seven days. Its engine can run that entire time . However, Rayne does note the vessel is a bit loud.
"People are always asking questions about it, it's a lineup at the dock," he says. "You can't go anywhere without it being recognized."
