She was designed by the Robert Allan Ltd. ship architects. She was built in Esquimalt, BC at a shipyard known as Burrard Yarrows.

She displaces 783 tons, and has a draft of just one metre. Her four propellers are mounted in tubes. Each is powered by an 839-horsepower diesel engine. She has accommodations for thirteen crew members and five supernumaries or passengers.
