Yes.
There are a number of small vessels in the coast guard fleet. In fact, about two-thirds of our fleet of 116 to 118 vessels on any given day are made up of vessels under 1,000 tonnes, the cut-off line between large and small vessels.
Mr. Leslie spoke of our lifeboat fleet, for instance. We have about four dozen lifeboats, 47- and 55-foot lifeboats. Our 47-foot fleet is actually in pretty good shape. We turned out the most recent five of those under the 2009 economic action plan. Our 55-foot lifeboat fleet, an example of which is the Cap-aux-Meules in Cap aux Meules, is an aging fleet of lifeboats. We recently initiated a design contract to work out a design for that lifeboat fleet. We need ten of these. As an example of the small vessel package, we will be going, in we hope late 2013 or early 2014, to an RFP for construction of those ten smaller vessels.
Just as one final comment, you should think of those projects, like the projects we have recently completed in
the Méridien Maritime de Matane shipyard
to build three 22- and 25-metre nearshore science vessels, or the project we have with ABCO, in Lunenburg, to build a small patrol vessel for Prince Edward Island—
