HMCS Cape Breton was a RCN Cape-class escort maintenance ship. Originally built for the Royal Navy as HMS Flamborough Head in 1944.
It was transferred to the Royal Canadian Navy in 1952 and served till 1975. It was used as a floating machine shop until the late 1990s. Except for a short section of the stern and her engines, was to eventually go on display in North Vancouver BC, the ship was sunk in the waters of British Columbia in 2001 by the Artificial Reef Society of British Columbia after extensive cleaning to meet Environment Canada requirements.
It now lies near Snake Island in Nanaimo harbour and is a popular scuba diving site.
As of December 2013, the City of North Vancouver has begun the tear down / removal of the boat stern.
