  • Salvage of the Langdale Queen
    DELTA TUG & BARGE LTD. SALVAGES HISTORIC VESSEL LANGDALE QUEEN By Capt. Don Rose On the 24th of December 2008, while moored in the Fraser River, the former BC Ferry “Langdale Queen” sank due to a heavy snow load on her deck. The salvage operation was headed up by Mitch Hughes General Manager of Delta Tug & Barge Ltd., along with Andrew Johnson of Global Rigging, Ted Hill of Hydra Marine and Mark McAllister of McAllister Marine Survey & Designs. To salvage the Langdale Queen all that was available was local equipment not originally intended for salvage work. Therefore some typical Canadian ingenuity was required to make do with available equipment. Vessel history: 300 feet long, 58 feet wide with a hull depth of 20 feet: The Langdale Queen O. N. 195485 has a very long and colourful history. Built in 1903 by William Cramp & Sons as the “SS Asbury Park” for service between New Jersey and New York. Photo #1: (See photo #1) In 1918 she sailed via the Panama Canal to San Francisco Bay and was renamed the “SS City of San Sacramento”. While in San Francisco her configuration from the main deck up was changed to load and discharge vehicles from the bow and stern. (See Photo #2) She sailed in San Francisco Bay until 1941, when she sailed to Puget Sound. There she sailed on the Seattle Bremerton run. In 1952, Black Ball Ferries Ltd acquired her, had her rebuilt at Yarrows Ltd at Esquimalt, BC. She was renamed Photo #2: “Kahloke” and repowered with four sixteen-cylinder General Motors diesel engines producing 6,560 BHP.
