Service notice - Temporary Vessel Replacement - March 4 - 21, 2025

Posted:   Friday, February 21, 2025

Issued on: Friday, February 21, 2025

Temporary Vessel Replacement
Denman Island West –Buckley Bay (Vancouver Island)
March 4 – 21, 2025

The Quinitsa will provide service on our Denman Island West – Buckley Bay route from March 4 - 21, while we complete regular vessel maintenance as part of our summer readiness planning.

We do not anticipate any impact to operations as a result of this temporary vessel replacement, and the maximum permitted gross vehicle weight (GVW) will remain unchanged, as the load limits of the berth infrastructure have been fully addressed.

For up-to-date sailing and departure information, check Current Conditions, follow @BCFerries on X or phone 1-888-223-3779 for further assistance.
