RIP Barrie Farrell: B.C. Boat Builder

Legendary B.C. boat builder Barrie Farrell died in September, 2022. The fishing boat in the foreground is his design -- one of more than 300 gill netters and trollers on the coast. He was honoured with a maritime excellence award by the Maritime Museum of B.C. in 2017. Barrie was among the first to build hulls from fibreglass and his story is told in the book Boats in my Blood: A Life of Boat Building (Image: Beside McIvor's Landing, River Road)
