Here’s a unique AirBnb getaway for you: Stay a night on the Theodore Too!
The tug — a life-size version of the character from Theodore Tugboat, a popular kid’s TV show in the 90’s. The 65-foot vessel was built in Nova Scotia in 2000, and made Halifax its home for the next two decades. Last year, following a sale, Theodore Too left the Halifax harbour to make its way to its new home at the Port of Hamilton. The tug now works as an ambassador to the marine industry and a guide to the Great Lakes.
Guests will be able to book two individual one-night stays in Hamilton (Theodore’s home) for up to four people each on September 10 and 11 for $22 per night. The $22 is “a nod to Theodore TOO’s 22 years.” Guests will be selected on a first come, first serve basis.
People can request to book a stay beginning Monday at noon. Book your stay here.
This will be the first time that overnight stays have been offered to non-crew members on the boat. The ‘tug has spent two decades hosting harbour tours and promoting tourism.
In honour of these stays, AirBnb will make a one-time donation to the Sunshine Foundation of Canada, a national charity for children and youth living with severe physical disabilities.
