for any of you who dont know about this already im drawing highly detailed(showing all the seats/ tables/ect) and scaled deck plans(not fire/saftey) of all the bc ferries including the retired ones. each ship is drawn on a sheet of lined paper. each plan shows a side drawing and all of the decks. the scale for each ferry drawing is 1cm = 20ft so it fits on paper. and all i use is a mechanical pencil(0.5/0.7/0.9 mm leads) and a small ruler. i first got the idea when i was on the chilliwack a couple years ago and i saw a deck plan on the wall and i thought it was really neat so i just started drawing my own. iwhen its complete i will scan all of them at my friends house and post them up on the forum. This will take loads of research but ill get it done.
