One of the Albion Ferries is at Allied. That's all I know? Scheduled to be there or break-down?

The Klitsa was just taken off of the Chemainus route the other day I think, so the Klitsa could be in the drydock right now.

either that, or the klitsa is replacing the kulleet, in that case. the tour might be more fun.

So that's why they decided to take the Klitsa off of the Chemainus route....But what's wrong with the Kahloke then, isn't it more similar to the Klatawa? I wonder how long the Klatawa will be in North Van then. It would be neat to see the Klitsa on the Albion route.

the kahloke is larger than the klataw and kulleet, in fact the 3 sisters are "Kulleet" "Klatawa" and "Klitsa" the kahloke is larger, and the kwuna has the wings..

Klatawa Teen thinks we might be able to go on the "Positional Cruise" of the Kulleet, back to Albion from North Vancouver, in about 3 weeks. Apparently it takes 6 hours, and we could drive on... What would we do for 6 hours.....on the Kulleet...... Well at least there's a snack bar...NOPE...... Well at least there's some Vending Machines......NOPE..... Well at least there's a drinking fountain....NOPE...... Well at least there's a bathroom....NOPE.... Well at least there's a non clausterphobic lounge.....NOPE.... Well at least it would be a very interesting, and scenic trip.....Yes, definitely! Who would be willing to go, if this was to happen....? I think I would actually go if this were to happen! We could have a picnic on the car deck....

I would definately go but need to know ahead of time if it was to happen. What time of day would we leave and arrive??? That would be interesting. Long but interesting. They dont have washrooms on there? hmm, I dont think I know of a ferry that dosent have washrooms onboard. I think even the Mill Bay has one, lol!

Well, there weren't any washrooms from what I could see. The Albion trip is so fast, there's not much point in even getting out of your car on that one. But there's still a crew lounge, so I wonder if there's any sort of washroom in there. I'm nearly doubtful about that though. BC Ferries advertises the Klitsa and Kahloke as having no amenities too.
Washrooms aren't really something I thought of on the K-Class, I guess they might be the only ones without them? The Garibaldi even has two washrooms....

That's why I love the single-enders... they're real ships  (don't get me wrong, i admire the K-class for many reasons) |

There is washroom on the Kulleet, and a computer even (i think) there is a small lounge. and a small galley for storage of food.

Transit's real easy out to the site. Get off on the first stop from the 212 "Deep Cove" that leaves Phibbs Exchnage every 30 minutes, or the C15 "Name Changes 10 times a day." It's about a 10 minute walk from there.
