Neat, I never realized canada had so many ferries...

[D'Elete BC in NJ]

Here is a count of the ferries in the US (larger than 50 car capacity):

At last official count, there were 67 ferries operating in waters of the United States with capacity to carry 50 or more vehicles. More than half (34) are on the Pacific Coast, 11 operate in the Gulf of Mexico and Mississippi River, 1 in the Great Lakes, and 6 in New England. Of the 15 ferries operating along the Atlantic Coast, there are 3 each in Virginia and New York, 4 in North Carolina and the 5 ferry vessels of Cape May-Lewes Ferry.

We don't have a place on this forum for photos of Canadian ferries outside of BC, so I thought I'd put this one here:

the George Black, crossing the Yukon River at Dawson City. It operates, obviously, when the river isn't frozen over, and looking at the dates for the opening and closing of the sailing season, I noticed it's been getting earlier in May, and later in October. More evidence of global warming, I guess.

This busy little vessel transports about 70,000 cars and up to 200,000 passengers a year, on a six minute crossing.
