Sewell Prescott Moody, owner of North Vancouver’s Moodyville Mill, died in the sinking of the Pacific in 1875. Salvagers may have located the ship.
In January 1973, the freighter Irish Stardust ran aground at Haddington Reef, rupturing two fuel tanks. The captain refloated the ship and kept going.
A piece of wreckage from the Pacific — the sunken ship likely contains millions of dollars worth of gold — is at the Vancouver Maritime Museum.
