The flagship theme for December/January is Cruise Ferry, which basically means ferries that have berthing cabins for passengers, and also take vehicles in a typical RO-RO fashion. We will accept ferries from anywhere in the world that meet this criteria, past or present.
On our coast, current vessels that would be eligible are:
- most of the Alaska Marine Highway fleet
- Northern Expedition
- Northern Adventure
Past west coast vessels (including, but not limited to, the following):
- Queen of the North
- Queen of Prince Rupert
- Wickersham
- Chinook (in its original form, NOT Chinook II or Sechelt Queen)
- Princess Marguerite II
- some of the former CPR ferries?
I can think of a few in Eastern Canada, both current and recent past:
- any of the Marine Atlantic vessels (Blue Puttees, Highlanders, Atlantic Vision, Leif Erikson)
- former Marine Atlantic (Caribou, Joseph & Clara Smallwood)
- the CTMA ferries that sail between Souris, PEI, and Iles De Madeleine, Quebec
- the now defunct Nova Star
There are also plenty of international ferries to choose from, especially in Europe.
