Named after a hamlet in northern Cornwall, the St. Eval is rumoured to have served as a tug/salvage boat during the Second World War, but documented evidence has not been found from what I've read. It was built in 1929 by Scott & Sons Co. in Scotland and rebuilt again in the 1990s. I saw the yacht recently anchored on the marina on Vancouver's north shore.

Right behind the St. Eval, you can see my little boat too that I take around the bay on sunny days. 馃槑
