Yeah, this is getting a little over cooked.

It’s not like the training will take weeks per employee. A remodeled vessel isn’t drastically different from its earlier incarnation, so it’s not like the crews are moving from a Ford to a Maserati.

Friendly reminder about the scope of work on this refit:

“Improvements are planned for electrical and mechanical systems. These include emergency communication systems, navigation and propulsion equipment, bow thrusters, propeller blades...”

Why do you keep pushing back on this? Can you please show us any evidence that what 57WestHills is saying is not correct?

Because the evidence he has provided makes no sense, and I have pointed that out.

We can be sure of this: nobody will tide that ferry until it’s back and ready. Why stress over the date?

I am not, I was simply saying that I heard the Ferry is having issues in Poland and they are behind schedule.  Then 57Westhills claims that they are 6 weeks ahead of schedule.  I then proceeded to explain why that doesn't make sense and provided some facts which supported my arguement.

Can you spot the Spirit of British Columbia in this video still taken from above the Remontowa shipyards?

Yup, top back.  Can we get the VV satellite to do a fly-past?  Would that be hard?

 

Also, who names their boat "Moby"?

You can't see it in the photo?

 

Btw the image is fro mid-February, so about a month old.

BC Ferries acceptance team is in Poland now for the SoBC. She is still on track to be early but the contractor for shipping is the figurative unknown.

BC Ferries acceptance team is in Poland now for the SoBC. She is still on track to be early but the contractor for shipping is the figurative unknown. 

It is not early, it is late.  BC Ferries is currently looking at contingency plans in the event that the ship does not go inservice until August.  On schedule has the ship departing Poland in February and the vessel back in service for May Long weekend.
