Replacement ferry boat

Rode this one a few times... last trip 2009 enroute ta British Columbia, via motorcycle. Great ride, and crossing the ferry was the high school bus... Kids asked me about my ride... One of my "antique" BMWs... Hell it was a 1978 R-100RS, a big 1000cc road bike with a full fairing for weather protection, and bags (pictured below).

She's my last, and only bike now.

But back to the ferry. Don't know IF the new boat is in service yet:
