In 2011 CCGS CG 117 and CCGS CG 118 were retired as training vessels.
These vessels are modified 44-foot motor lifeboat used by the Coast Guard (18 excluding these training versions) from 1966 to 1970s.

Famous quotes containing the words training and/or vessels:
“There is all the difference in the world between departure from recognised rules by one who has learned to obey them, and neglect of them through want of training or want of skill or want of understanding. Before you can be eccentric you must know where the circle is.”
—Ellen Terry (1847–1928)
“First, there is the power of the Wind, constantly exerted over the globe.... Here is an almost incalculable power at our disposal, yet how trifling the use we make of it! It only serves to turn a few mills, blow a few vessels across the ocean, and a few trivial ends besides. What a poor compliment do we pay to our indefatigable and energetic servant!”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
