CFAV BURRARD
Built by Russel Brother's Ltd, Owen Sound, Ont., Adamsville was delivered by CN rail to Vancouver to serve on the West coast. After the war, Adamsville continued service as a CNA. Renamed BURRARD, she became a tender to the reserve unit HMCS DISCOVERY and later HMCS NONSUCH. She was paid off and she was sold for private use.
