I was out with the family this weekend getting by vitamin D fix.  We went out for a BBQ at rocky point in Port Moody. We found a spot in the shade just to the right of where the new water park is. On the edge of the water I noticed a old wooden construction, at first I thought is was some kind of wooden retaining wall, and then I walked over and noticed is was an old wooden boat that was falling apart and rotting. The craftsmanship was phenomenal, on the part that I could see. I tried looking for any identification but there is none.

Does anyone have any info on the boat. I tried researching on the net but can find nothing. Perhaps some of the old timers know what happened and why the boat is up on the sand.

I also noticed on the other side of the bay, there was an old building of some sort.. any info would be great.

In my serach i found a picture.

that thing has been there forever. i think it crashed there in a storm and has been there ever since. not quite sure the dates and all, but its been there quite a while.

My friend's dad's uncle worked on that boat. Ate too many Burrard inlet crab one night and you know the rest. Ran the boat aground from chemicals in the crab. Hear they're tasty now though
