Wolfe Islander was built as a
ferry by Coillingwood Shipbuilding Company in Ontario
and was was launched in 1946. She was originally meant
to be a gift to China, but this was cancelled before
completment. She was renamed to Ottawa
Maybrook and was converted to a
combined car and passenger ferry. She served as a
local car ferry on Lake Ontario as Wolfe Islander II
for decades, before she was taken out of service in
the early 1980's. She was deliberately scuttled as an
artificial reef and dive attraction outside Kingston
21. September 1985. The wreck rest today
standing on her keel as a classic Donald Duck wreck on a
depth of 12 to 25 meter.
