This is an object not found in many archives - a life ring! It's from the SRS (Sea Ranger Ship) Margaree; the unit was named after an Esquimalt-based Canadian Navy ship. There were Sea Rangers in Canada 1927-1969 (Source: GGC Ontario Archives ). The ship's bell from another Sea Ranger unit is also in the SVI archives, as are some Sea Ranger unit records and extensive scrapbooks, so we will be posting more about this branch in the future.
