Future vessels
In 2019, BC started a $200 million program to acquire four hybrid/electric ferries (800 kWh each) to service three routes. As for the remaining seven vessels within the 12-year capital plan, they will all be large ships, which will replace six aging ships and provide one additional vessel to support growth and improve resiliency. Marshall says the first of these new large ships will enter service in 2029.
