The Theodore Tugboat was a mainstay in Halifax for 20 years and now it is coming to Ontario.
Built at Snyder’s Shipyard in Dayspring in 2000, Nova Scotia, Theodore TOO, a 65-foot tugboat, is a reproduction of the original TV character Theodore Tugboat from the beloved CBC series “Theodore Tugboat”.
Theodore Tugboat was sold last year by its Halifax owners and the new owner, Blair McKeil, is bringing him to Ontario, specifically to Hamilton.
A 4-person crew set sail from Halifax on June 10th. Theodore TOO is scheduled to arrive in the Port of Hamilton where he will be converted to biodiesel signalling his future efforts as a sustainability champion.
Blair McKeil says Theodore Tugboat will collaborate with one of the nation’s leading water education and conservation advocates, Swim Drink Fish, which will see Theodore TOO play a larger role in promoting several of the organization’s initiatives including its Great Lakes Guide.
Plans are also in the works to have Theodore TOO actively advocate for employment in Canada’s marine and shipbuilding industry in the face of a critical labour shortage through federal and industry-driven revitalization initiatives.

Theodore TOO will not be inviting individuals to board the vessel at various ports of call during his voyage due to COVID-19 restrictions.
