In news of the weird : the McBarge has mcflipped. Someone break the news gently to Bright Sun Films, as he sounded very hopeful it would be restored/repurposed. #mcbarge #brightsunfilms

In 2008 I did a @jmcelroy.bsky.social double - had my old Boston Whaler in the city, and we went under one of the fast ferries when they were languishing at the foot of Lonsdale. Then, through 2nd Narrows to the McBarge, at that time moored near the oil refineries below SFU.

Strangely, I am almost as sad about the sinking of the #McBarge as I was when the MV Kalakala was scrapped. The two of them together could have been a pretty amazing display. Actually some big similarities between their looks.

The #mcbarge could have been turned in to an Interceptor, before turning in to river garbage, itself. #showerthoughts

Canada Expo wonder,
Left empty for 40 years,
Now docked on YouTube.
