HMCS OJIBWA planning to be open Saturday & Sunday Jan 28 & 29. We are in the process of confirming staff so check back later in the week to confirm.
Our hours will be noon till 4:00. Dress WARM as there is minimal heat on the boat. Think of it as your chance to experience what it was like in the winter in the North Atlantic!!! Seriously - Ojibwa is phenomenal at any time! As always, opening in the winter is subject to weather i.e.,- being snowed out rather than snowed in! You can bet your buttons that visitors to HMCS Ojibwa, as enthralled as they are, want to know how submariners could get out of the submarine in the event resurfacing was not an option - and neither were the doors that visitors use today! Such trepidation is not a matter of too many scary movies; it is a matter of too many lives sacrificed to the deep. Former submariner Paul Connolly, had a moment of fame in the midst of HMCS Ojibwa's role in the development of Deep Submergence Rescue Vehicles (DSRVs) to serve that purpose.
