The CFAV Quest was used to conduct oceanographic and hydrographic research in Europe, the North Atlantic and the Arctic.

All hazardous materials, salvageable equipment and memorabilia were removed from the CFAV Quest. The ship was dismantled, and the materials recycled.

Work on the CFAV Quest began in March 2017 and was completed December 2017.
