Do Not Panic

Thank you for the comments praising this blog, some of which I published, others I dared not, and others decrying the demise of Shipfax.

Don't weep yet!

It will just change form in 2016. I am not sure what exact form it will take, but it will be different.

Shipfax in its current form will be around for a while yet, but it will evolve into something else. 

CCGS Ann Harvey under construction at Halifax Shipyard in 1985.  Tines have changed, methods have changed, technology has changed.and Shipfax must change too.

By the way CCGS Ann Harvey is still going too. After its grounding  April 1, it was stabilized with an underwater patching job by Fleet Diving Unit Atlantic, and arrived in St.John's April 9 in tow of Teleost.
It will sail on - as will Shipfax.
