One of its more recent trips (like 4 years ago) was to the government docks in Victoria (Esquimalt) across from CFB Naden.
The Mill Bay that is.

Sweet photos ;D The newest ones are good when she was like her sisters the Nanny and Burn an expo colour ship being lifted. Say ever think the Nanny and Burn will be lifted to look and have a high speed like the Newest? I doubt it very much. Don't forget, the New West was lifted nearly 15 YEARS ago & all the Burnaby class vessels were made within a few years of each other, so that means 15 years of wear & tear on the hull & superstructures. I'm sure they COULD do it if they wanted, but it would make more economic sense at this point to build new ferries, as they're doing, rather than keep upgrading 45 year old ships. |
