CFAV HARO was named after the Haro Strait, which connects the Straits of Georgia and Juan de Fuca in British Columbia, and is frequently transited by Royal Canadian Navy vessels proceeding north from Esquimalt, the home of our Pacific Fleet. The steel cutting commenced in Sept 2020 and the HARO was launched 15 Jul 2022.  HARO and her sister BARKERVILLE were delivered by sealift to the RCN’s Maritime Forces Pacific in Esquimalt, British Columbia, in Jul 2024.
