Dear Editor,
Re: Chief Skugaid cut adrift by Larco, The Record, Feb. 22.
After reading the article regarding the historical wooden vessel moored along New Westminster waterfront, it seems we should be doing something to help preserve and celebrate its long existence. Seeing it regularly beside the Discovery Center is always a welcome sight. Maybe not right location to perform maintenance work but it does need a home around here. Freighter canoes and all...
Capt. Dave Cobb is the man to bring it back to proper sea worthy shape, cut him some slack I say.
Give him some more time to find a more suitable home for "the chief." It will create a great story for the region.
Props for doing article in your paper!
