The new Super C Class vessel build for BC Ferries is on it's way to British Columbia. BC Ferries has built a tracker to follow it's 45 day journey. You can expect to see the first of 3 of these vessels on routes between Vancouver and Vancouver Island by Spring 2008. They are the largest double ended ferries in the world, necessary to maneuver in the tight waters of BC's coastline.
A video highlighting the "handover" of the ship is available as well. For those of us who depend on the ferry system in BC - it is truly an extension of our highways - it is a welcome addition to the world's largest ferry fleet. And a great bonus for tourists travelling to and from Vancouver Island on the 90 minute trip.
