Very interesting. I could swear the Queen of Saanich was still in service! http://www.westcoa...ueenofsaanich.html

You should contact Mark Hume with the Globe and mail about this information. He is a great Environmental reporter. That Ferry should have never been allowed there in the first place. sqecs2 in reply to westvandude (Show the comment) 4 months ago A friend of mine knows a guy who took his kayak over to it. He climbed around inside. Everything is still intact including the White Spot galley. He thinks there is oil and stuff leaking from it. Nobody is admitting ownership so an oil spill is paid by whom? We need to check this out, get some reporters over there. westvandude 4 months ago

More info... too bad about the vandals :@

Just came here to post this. I think an aquatic venture is in order! Saanich got sold back in 2010 IIRC, along with Esquimalt and Tsawassen. Lord knows what she's doing just sitting around Howe Sound.

Anyone have a boat?

Any idea which part of the island its anchored to? im thinking a day trip (perhaps overnight...) around the island with my kayak.

We may be too late, I heard that it's been gone since the 7th. :\

Sadly yes, the ferry was sent to Mexico for scrap earlier this month.

Yeah, looks like she'll hit Mexico today or tomorrow. That's okay, we just need a bigger boat to get to it!

If i remember well. It took me 24hrs drive down to Ensenada. 100km south of Tijuana if you really wanna visit her before she goes under the knife. As a perk, Ensenada is also mile 0 for the Baja 1000 off road race.

I have heard the queen of Sidney might also be heading to Mexico. Anyhow, they are in talk about buying it, will see if she goes or sink in the river

Anyone interested in checking out the McBarge before it get shipped to Mission to be refurbished and serve as brand new restaurant on the waterfront?

Would absolutely love to check out the McBarge.

I would be down for a McTrip for sure too.

I'm in. But where will we procure the victory McRibs afterwards?

Keep me in the loop, I am relatively close to it.

So a little search show's that our good lady is still around, Planning to be in the area in the near future and wondering if you chaps wouldn't be up for a midnight boat ride. Keep me in the loop and shenanigans shall ensue.

Daytime would be better, it's pretty visible from some mega-mansions nearby.

I'm interested in partaking in this expedition.

I will definitely partake on this adventure as well. If no one has a boat I have a clever idea
