The Maple Leaf is a schooner built in 1904, making it British Columbia's oldest tall ship.
It operates as a small cruise ship touring the west coast of North America and accommodating eight passengers.
[2] In 1904, a Vancouver businessman named Alexander MacLaren wanted the fastest and best sailing yacht on the west coast.
It was purchased in 1980 at a government auction by Brian Falconer who restored the vessel and turned it into a eco cruise ship.
The planking, decks, and beams were constructed of coastal Douglas fir wood, making the ship a true vessel of the coast.
