Pretty disappointing. I was hoping to use them this week instead of Harbour Air.

Sure, of course. But it’s an unlucky start and I’m hoping they succeed.

The biggest advantage for me is the time savings on a day trip to Vancouver. It drops off near the waterfront station so I can avoid the vehicle fee and traffic. And hopefully there won't be issues with cancelled sailings.

It's supposed to be 70 minutes.

I re-posted to nanaimo, and sharing in case anyone is interested in joining the community.

I love that!

Today was brutal. It’s 26 in Nanaimo right now.

I read it as a condition of the approval that they’ll pay if they actually end up building.

Almost 40 mm so far.

First impressions are tough to beat. Personally I’m disappointed but not giving up. They have a long way to go before frustrating people the way BC Ferries does.

That story links to a slide deck with a breakdown of the numbers. It's worth taking a look at to see where the money is being spent.
