  7. Looks like he collected other things if this is your man. Very interesting. http://digital.library.mcgill.ca/pugsley/pugintro.htm But this is so NF it's boring. Great mystery for a cold night... The Map Collection The Map Collection in the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections contains over 6,000 historical maps, dating from 1556 to the 1940s. The major strengths of the collection are the discovery and exploration of North America, works by sixteenth century European cartographers (i.e. Hondius, Ortelius and Speed), and Canadian and Montreal maps from the nineteenth and twentieth Century. The Pugsley Maps In 1971-72 Dr. William Howard Pugsley, a McGill alumnus, donated a collection of 50 early Canadian maps, dating from 1556 to 1857, to the McGill University Libraries. Dr. Pugsley collected these maps during the late 1930s, and World War II, principally in England. Now housed in the Department of Rare Books and Special Collections in the McLennan Library, this set of maps tells the story of the discovery and exploration of North America. The oldest map in the Pugsley collection is from Ramusio's Delle navigationi et Viaggi, vol. 3, 1556, the first book published to present a detailed account of North America. William Howard Pugsley, 1912-1993 William Howard Pugsley was born in Montreal in 1912. He attended Ashbury College in Ottawa, from which he graduated in 1929. He spent the next year at the Sorbonne in Paris, and then attended McGill University, graduating with a B.Com. (Honours) in 1934. In 1936, he received an M.B.A. (with High Distinction) from Harvard Business School and in 1950, a Ph.D. in Economics from McGill. During World War II, Pugsley was a Lieutenant in the Canadian Navy, but resigned his commission to write a book about the Lower Deck: Saints devils and ordinary seamen (Toronto: Collins, 1945). After the War, he spent several summers with the fleet and published another book about the life of a sailor in the Canadian Navy: Sailor Remember (Toronto: Collins, 1948). Then a third book about the Navy was written: Return to the sea: Lower Deck of the Canadian Navy revisited eleven years after the 1945 demobilization (Don Mills: Collins, 1960). From 1954 to 1981, Professor Pugsley taught in the School of Commerce, McGill University, later the Faculty of Management. In 1981, he was the producer of McGill's Red and White Revue. William Pugsley died in Ottawa in 1993.
  8. I was shocked by this and thought I would post it. Reports indicate it was a heart attack in North Tea. Tragic but I can think of worse ways to go.... I have always loved his work. R.I.P. Ken Sep 24, 2007 12:39 PM THE CANADIAN PRESS GUELPH – Renowned Canadian painter Ken Danby has died at the age of 67. Greg McKee, the manager of the Danby Studio in Guelph, Ont., said Danby died Sunday while canoeing in Algonquin Park. McKee said it's believed Danby died of a heart attack, but the cause of death will not be known until an autopsy is completed. Danby, born March 6, 1940, in Sault Ste. Marie, is recognized as one of the world's foremost realist painters. He's best known for his 1972 painting "At the Crease," depicting a masked hockey goaltender. He is survived by his wife and three sons. In the 1980s, Danby prepared a series of watercolours of Canadian athletes at the 1984 Winter Olympics in Sarajevo. He has also served on the governing board of the Canada Council and as a member of the Board of Trustees of the National Gallery of Canada. In 2001, he was vested in both the Order of Ontario and the Order of Canada.
  9. Yeah where is BPS I was thinking about him too.
  10. See OFSAA they are promoting new clubs for school and will pony up $800 to introduce the sport/activity. "Funding will be provided to a limited number of schools to introduce secondary school students to a new sport or physical activity through a one-day activity, intramural event, or clinic. The focus must be on sports and/or physical activities that have not been available to students in the past. Funds can be used to purchase equipment, instructors, travel, facility rental, transportation and/or other resource materials. " http://www.ofsaa.on.ca/site/index.cfm Go for it Poacher I would be interested in what happens.
  11. Chin up be strong for your friend and his family regardless and enjoy the time you have with him. You and Kareem are in my thoughts.
  12. Nice Laker I wold be pretty disappointed too if I had to leave that behind. I agree with TG let's see some more photos and stories.
  13. Dan great news. That photo stopped me in my tracks. Beautiful... Look forward to the new photo section. All the best Nemo
  14. Congrats enjoy him.
  15. I went through the scuppers on the inwales. So no holes needed. As for something that woould screw down no problems. Perhaps another peice of metal that is tightened up against the bottom of the inwale. Also when testing make sure you tie the motor off to the mother ship. If not you may be missing something.
  16. Hi Dan I made one from some parts I picked up from Home Depot. 30 inches of aluminum bracket and some maple to bolt on to. Laminated the maple and screwed to the bracket. Then used some j screws to hook onto the gunwales. The screws use wing nuts so all is hand tightened. The 2 horse is 27 pounds. I took this rig into Big Crow in APP with a buddy in May. Ran fine. Only changes I would make. Would be to use longer lengths of maple to stop some torquing of the bracket. Any questions let me know

  23. Yep that is a good site. But I would recommend a portable downrigger. Canon Mini Troll at CTC.
  24. THanks Gerritt I haven't spoken with the family yet but hopefully the OPP will be able to provide some answers with this new lead. This area is pretty vast and remote so every pair of eyes is important. I will keep you posted.
