The firm continues to roll out its Clean Futures Plan with the launch of its third battery electric-hybrid island class vessel. Construction is well underway and sea trials are scheduled for February 2021. Following successful sea trials, the vessel will make its way to Point Hope Shipyards in Victoria in summer 2021 for final preparations. The ferry will begin service on the Campbell River – Quadra Island, Quathiaski Cove route in British Columbia in late 2021.
