NORTHERN CROSS
NORTHERN CROSS
NORTHERN CROSS — A PIECE OF CANADIAN MARITIME HISTORY
Asking Price: $59,995 CAD
Nearly a century old, Northern Cross is far more than a boat—she is a remarkable piece of Canadian maritime history.
Originally built as an Anglican Church mission vessel, Northern Cross served northern communities, carrying missionaries, supplies, and support to remote coastal areas at a time when waterways were often the only practical means of transportation. Her working history gives this vessel a character and provenance that simply cannot be replicated in a modern boat.
After decades of service, Northern Cross passed into private ownership, where she has continued to be cared for and enjoyed by her current owners. Remarkably, she retains her original Gardner diesel engine, adding another layer of authenticity and historical appeal to this already unusual vessel.
Today, Northern Cross offers a rare opportunity for someone looking for a boat with history, character, and a story to tell. Whether your interest is in historic vessels, coastal cruising, preservation, or simply owning a truly distinctive boat, Northern Cross deserves a closer look.
She has spent generations on the water and has been well loved by her current owners. Now, she is ready for her next chapter.
