Description:

Photo shows the cargo vessel DUKE OF TOPSAIL arriving Lewisporte in 1994. This vessel was owned by Lloyd Bugden in which he was also captain. The Duke of Topsail loaded freight in Lewisporte and delivered it along the coast of Labrador in which a lot of these little communities were completely isolated. All supplies were brought to Labrador from Lewisporte in the summer months because it would freeze solid in the winter. The Duke of Topsail was a lift on/lift off/RoRo
Does anyone know if the DUKE OF TOPSAIL is in operation?

Duke of Topsail in top form and continues her duties between South Florida, Abaco Island, and Nassau. The Spirit of Capt. Lloyd Bugden lives on! We have kept his picture in the Wheelhouse for the past seventeen years. We plan a 20th anniversary celebration in 2017. Regards, Randy Key, Unites Abaco Shipping
