Like I said in another post, Karl has lent me his tape of his Ferry Videos. So I'm going to be posting it piece by piece for you guys. There's some really good footage on it. But I'll be honest, Karl was young when he made these films, so it's a bit shaky. But it's still good, I'm sure you guys will enjoy it. So when I get time, you'll all see a new part of it. Today, you guys get to see the Queen of Victoria film that I put together from this video. Tomorrows posting will be the Queen of Sidney and Tsawwassen. Here's the link to Download the Queen of Victoria video, simply click where is says "Download Now". s22.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3BUWBCJ88OYCP2421UEH01D5TD |

Is that a mid-ship upstairs lounge that I see? I rarely took the V-Class, so this is new to me.
Is upstairs midships the same as the NewWest's upstairs aft lounge?

Actually the reason the Queen of Victoria one is so shaky is because that was the first time I was using a tripod and I wasent use to it and kept having trouble with it. Only time I used it though! lol

The Upper Midship Lounge is similar to the Newwests Aft Lounge. The only thing is, the Newwests Lounge is alot fancier than the V-Class upper mid lounge. The Newwest also has the Solariums still, which is right where the upper mid lounge is on the V-Class. |

Awesome, Karl..! It was great to see some video of the Victoria, and to hear the old announcements too..!  |

Yeah the Old Announcements was a real surprise though I've only heard the Male Voice talking the Female voice says about the same thing just a different voice

The old announcements as in the two beeps followed by the man's voice recording? That is still on most ships I think besides the majors.

lol, Doug, it has been a while since you've been on a Ferry!! They changed the announcements back in 2004 on all of the Major Ferries. The New Announcements include, a new welcome tone, with the introduction of the ferries' name, and then along with another female voice. The speech is pretty much just the same, just not with the guy from the 80s.

Once again a great job. I liked how much detail there was in the segment on the Queen of Tsawassen.
btw, who was the kid talking in the background?

I'm not sure, but I think it's Karls brother, he says things throughout the whole video actually. Hey Karl, sounds like your brother (?) knows quite a bit about the ferries, seeming you and your family went on almost every ferry back then, and where is he now?
