Geschiedenis
Steel, 5,390 tons gross, single screw freighter built by Canadian Vickers of Montreal in 1920. On 26th February 1924, the 400 foot Canadian built Norwegian cargo ship Tatjana, sailing from the far east under charter to a Japanese company bound for Vancouver, was pushed off course by a gale and found herself on the rocks of Effingham Island in Barklay Sound (south of Ucluelet, on the west side of Vancouver Island). All 27 crew members were saved by the Bamfield lifeboat and the ship was abandoned as a total loss.
The Pacific Salvage Company, however, pulled her off the reef and towed her to Esquimalt where she underwent major repair to put her back in service.
