The Bagotville is a tugboat built in Les Méchins, Quebec in 1964.[1][2] [3]
The Bagotville was one of the tugs that helped install the pipes for Toronto's deep lake water cooling project.[4] She was also one of the tugs that attempted to free the lake freighter George M. Carl, when she ran aground off the Humber River, in October 1975.[5]
