Sedna Desgagnes is a bulk carrier built in China for the Canadian shippling line Desgagnes. The television series High Arctic Haulers followed the vessel as she made the annual deliveries of supplies to a series of communities in Canada's Arctic Archipelago during the short shipping season.[1][2]
When completed in 2009, the vessel was named the Beluga Festivity.[3]
The Sedna Desgagnes ran aground in the St. Lawrence Seaway, near Prescott, Ontario, on October 14, 2012.[3][4]
