History
420 gross tons freighter built in Birkenhead, United Kingdom. Notably, she was the first all-welded cargo ship and was intended as an experiment. She came to British Columbia in 1925, owned by British Columbia Cement Company. She had previously been named Fullagar, and Caria, and was renamed Shean in 1930. In 1934, she was sold to Mexican owners and renamed Cedros. She sank after a collision off Ensenada, Mexico in 1937.
