Whasinawhatnow? means "what the hell?" or "I don't understand what you just said"
Another note. Dopesauce means sweet or amazing, and weaksauce means "that sucks"

I hope the Sidney's still above-water, too.
I have some good memories of sailing her on the Comox-Powell River route.
I also like how she looks: with the bridge further-back from the bow, different from the later-built ships. She looks cute as a shorter ship.
The upstairs lounge was always a peaceful place....unless there was a school sports-team travelling that day.......

I hope she is still afloat too. I wouldent want her to be sunk! That's sad if she is That is a really nice painting of the Sidney. I think I only ever sailed on her once. |

What does Rainy Bay Logging use the Sidney for? Do they use her for storage, or for goods transportation, or does she just sit there?

That'd be dopesauce. I've always wanted to sneak onto a ferry and take a look around when it's not in service. I think someone did that. I found a website with pictures from that whole thing. I forgot the name of the site though.
