#BCFerries

Our sixth Island Class ferry is now on its way to British Columbia after departing Damen Shipyards Galati in Romania at sunrise on October 11. Island 6, as it is temporarily named, is the last in this series of newly built Island Class ferries to join BC Ferries’ fleet.
It will take approximately 60 days, depending on weather, for Island 6 to make the transoceanic voyage. The ship will sail under its own power approximately 10,700 nautical miles across the Atlantic Ocean, through the Panama Canal and up the Pacific Coast of North America arriving at Point Hope Maritime in Victoria, B.C. later this year.
