CCGS ''Alexander Henry'' is a former Canadian Coast Guard Light icebreaker and Buoy tender in the Great Lakes.〔 〕 She is currently a museum ship preserved at the Marine Museum of the Great Lakes in Kingston, Ontario. Previously, during the summer months it was also operated as a bed and breakfast. Built at Port Arthur Shipbuilding Co. Ltd., Port Arthur, she was commissioned into the Department of Transport's Marine Service as CGS ''Alexander Henry'' using the prefix "Canadian Government Ship". She was transferred in 1962 to the newly created Canadian Coast Guard and is named after Alexander Henry the elder, an 18th-century British explorer and fur trader. CCGS ''Alexander Henry'' served her entire coast guard career on the Great Lakes. She was launched in 1958, commissioned in 1959, and retired from service in 1984 after CCGS ''Samuel Risley'' entered service. The ''Alexander Henry'' is scheduled to enter Kingston's historic drydocks in 2010.〔 〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「CCGS Alexander Henry」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
