Various ships in Esquimalt Harbour.
General view of the harbour with one of the frigates in the foreground and the stern of
HMCS Ottawa (229) in
the middle. In the distance is the visiting British cruiser HMS Belfast.
The two ships forward of the cruiser's bow are decommissioned frigates, Stonetown and
St Stephen. These were coverted to be used as weatherships out at weather station
PAPA in the gulf of Alaska.
