Phare Lightouse Port Daniel Gaspé Coast Quebec Canada

Port Daniel Ouest Lighthouse
The bark Colborne left London on August 30, 1838, bound for Quebec with a cargo of spirits, palm oil and tallow. Built and launched just months earlier in Montreal, the Colborne would not survive the voyage. At 1:00 a.m., Thursday, October 16, it struck rock, seven miles below Port Daniel. Heavy seas washed over her, taking with it forty-two of the fifty-four crew and passengers. The remaining twelve clung to the rigging until morning when they were rescued by two schooners. Captain Kent and the first mate were among those lost. The second mate, along with eight crew members and three passengers were taken to Port Daniel.
Two lighthouses were built in Port Daniel seventy years later.

The first was built in 1902 at the outer end of the wharf at White Point. It was a square white lighthouse, twenty-nine feet high, which exhibited a fixed red light, with a focal plane of thirty-one feet and a range of eleven miles. Two years later, the tower was moved 100 feet to the outer end of the recently extended wharf. A hand horn was used to answer signals from steamers in the vicinity of the station during times of fog.

The second, a white, octagonal wooden lighthouse with a height of thirty-three feet, was constructed at West Point in 1906, seventy-five yards from the eastern extremity of the point. At the opening of navigation in 1907, the tower commenced exhibiting its fixed white light, produced by petroleum vapour burned under an incandescent mantle. As the point was roughly seventy feet above the bay, the light had a focal plane of 100 feet. The tower was built by Messrs. Chapados & Robichaud, of Gascon, under a $900 contract.

The wooden tower at West Point was destroyed by fire, prompting the erection of a twenty-two-foot-tall concrete tower in its place. Work on the lighthouse commenced in 1917 and was completed the following year at a cost of $1,690.80. In the interim, a provisional light was shown from the point in the form of a lens lantern atop a pole.

The octagonal concrete lighthouse continues to warn mariners of the dangerous reefs along the western approach to Port Daniel Bay, but it is now powered by electricity, with a signature of a white flash every five seconds. The all-white tower topped by a red lantern contains a spiral red iron staircase that leads to the lantern room.

Port Daniel reportedly received its name when Jacques Cartier gave his navigator the order Port, Daniel during a violent storm on Chaleur Bay. Charles Daniel, the navigator, obeyed, and the ship safely entered the protected waters of what is now Port Daniel Bay.

Phare de Port Daniel Ouest
L'écorce Colborne a quitté Londres le 30 août 1838, à destination de Québec avec une cargaison de spiritueux, d'huile de palme et de suif. Construit et lancé quelques mois plus tôt à Montréal, le Colborne ne survivrait pas au voyage. Le jeudi 16 octobre à 13 h 00, il a heurté un rocher à sept milles au-dessous de Port Daniel. Une mer agitée la recouvrait, emportant quarante-deux des cinquante-quatre membres d'équipage et passagers. Les douze restants se sont accrochés au gréement jusqu'au matin où ils ont été sauvés par deux goélettes. Le capitaine Kent et le premier lieutenant faisaient partie des personnes perdues. Le second lieutenant, accompagné de huit membres d'équipage et de trois passagers, a été conduit à Port Daniel.
Deux phares ont été construits à Port Daniel soixante-dix ans plus tard.

Le premier a été construit en 1902 à l'extrémité du quai de White Point. C'était un phare blanc et carré, haut de vingt-neuf pieds, qui présentait un feu rouge fixe, avec un plan focal de trente et un pieds et une portée de onze milles. Deux ans plus tard, la tour a été déplacée de 100 pieds à l'extrémité extérieure du quai récemment agrandi. Un avertisseur sonore a été utilisé pour répondre aux signaux des bateaux à vapeur à proximité de la station pendant les périodes de brouillard.

Le second, un phare octogonal en bois blanc de 33 mètres de haut, fut construit à West Point en 1906, à soixante-quinze mètres de l'extrémité est de la pointe. À l'ouverture de la navigation en 1907,

La tour en bois de West Point a été détruite par un incendie, ce qui a entraîné la construction d'une tour en béton de 22 pieds de haut. Les travaux sur le phare ont commencé en 1917 et se sont achevés l'année suivante au coût de 1 690,80 $. Dans l’intervalle, une lumière provisoire a été montrée à partir du point, sous la forme d’une lanterne à lentille placée au sommet d’un pôle.



Port Daniel aurait reçu son nom lorsque Jacques Cartier a donné à son navigateur l'ordre Port, Daniel lors d'une violente tempête sur la baie des Chaleurs. Charles Daniel, le navigateur, obéit et le navire entra en toute sécurité dans les eaux protégées de l'actuelle baie de Port Daniel.

Jun 2 15 Pt Colborne CSL Assiniboine

Anybody Know ????
The fall of 2003 saw the Jean Parisien pulled out of active service and docked at Montreal, QC for use as a stationary topping-off vessel. Later in the year, the self unloader brought a load of iron ore to Hamilton, ON. After unloading, the Parisien proceeded to the Port Weller Dry Docks, St. Catharines, ON arriving December 14 for winter lay-up. When the vessel did not fit out for the 2004 season, it was rumored that the self-unloader was to be a candidate for a forebody replacement or scrapping pending projected economic conditions.

On July 16, 2004 while remaining at Port Weller Dry Docks, the markings of the Jean Parisien were painted out including her name and billboards with her stacks being painted completely black. On August 24, 2004; Canada Steamship Lines announced a $30 million forebody replacement and steel renewal to be completed by Canadian Shipbuilding and Engineering (Port Weller Dry Docks), St. Catharines, ON. This was the fourth vessel of the fleet to receive a completely new Canadian built hull including state-of-the-art environmentally friendly automated self-unloading equipment. The new self-unloader is 739' 10 (225.50m) in length with the new forebody extending the life of the vessel by 25 years. The new forebody is a single hold design with a single belt and 2 front-end loaders to facilitate the unloading of the vessel. Her unloading rate has remained essentially the same. This concept is a first of a kind for the CSL fleet and is similar in design to the new mid-body of Upper Lakes' self-unloader John D. Leitch The other three self-unloaders of the Canada Steamship Lines fleet having already received life extending new forebodies include the CSL Niagara, the Rt. Hon. Paul J. Martin, and the CSL Laurentien. The rebuilding started quickly with the removed old forebody going to International Marine Salvage, Port Colborne, ON for scrapping in early November of 2004. The new vessel is now capable of carrying up to 36,768 tons (37,358 mt) at a mid-summer draft of 30' 04 (9.25m) and 30,824 tons (31,319 mt) at the draft of 26' 06 (8.08m).

At a naming ceremony held at Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON on March 5, 2005, the name CSL Assiniboine was chosen for the newly rebuilt self-unloader once she sails later in 2005. The name honors Canada's grain producing western provinces and was submitted by the retiring manager of CSL's Winnipeg office. The Assiniboine River originates in southeastern Saskatchewan crossing the wheat-growing plains of Manitoba emptying into the Red River at Winnipeg, MB. The last Canada Steamship Lines vessel named in honor of Canada's western provinces was the Prairie Harvest, now sailing as the Atlantic Huron.

With the assistance of tugs Vac, Seahound, and Glenevis, the CSL Assiniboine emerged from the Port Weller Dry Docks on June 26, 2005 being moved to the fit-out dock. The new self-unloader was formally christened CSL Assiniboine at a private ceremony held at the Port Weller Dry Docks on June 29, 2005 with sea trials taking place on July 4, 2005. After completing her sea trials, the self-unloader departed the Port Weller Dry Docks on her maiden voyage July 5, 2005 upbound in the Welland Canal bound for the Burlington Northern docks at Superior, WI to load taconite for Hamilton, ON. The CSL Assiniboine departed Superior on July 9 with what is believed to be a Canadian fleet cargo record from Burlington Northern of 29,715 tons (30,192 mt) of taconite pellets. On March 22, 2006, the self-unloader opened the Port of Hamilton delivering a load of coal from Sandusky, OH to Stelco.
