    Looks like an Fast Attack Submarine. The US Navy has a torpedo test range in BC.... Oh and it isn't half submerged, that is surfaced. Most of it remains underwater even when surfaced.

    Ok, an old Navy saying here (easy now, it just a joke)

    "40 men go down in a submarine..... 6 months later, 20 couples come up."

    There are Canadian submarines which sail out of a CFB near Victoria.

    Nanoose Bay test range , CFB Esquimalt or Bangor WA are all a lot closer no doubt it was just passing through though

    Once the mooring lines are off it is all just Male Bonding. :)

    There are only two types of ships in any Navy:
    1. Submarines.
    2. Targets.


    Yes, I rode the boats for 20 years.
