The
destroyer HMCS Mackenzie was built by Canadian Vickers Ltd
and launched for the Canadian navy in May 1961. She was
commissioned the year after and did service from October
1962 till August 1993. Two years after she was stricken
from the navy lists she was sold to Artificial Reef
Society to be scuttled as an artificial reef. Outside
Gooch Island she was scuttled 16.September 1995. The old
destroyer rest today as a pretty decent "Donald Duck"
wreck with a slight listing on a depth of 10 to 30 meter
north of Victoria. Also see her sister ship HMCS Yukon in California, USA.
