Pssst, wanna buy a ferry or two?



Geez, you get the feeling that the BC Government probably wishes they thought of this, when they wanted to move the Fast Cats a few years ago?

The Washington State Ferry service is auctioning off two of their foot passenger ferries, which have been out of service since 2003, if you have some cash handy you could be the proud owner of a vessel ready to carry 350 of your closest friends across whatever body of water you need to navigate.

Both ferries are less than 10 years old and have been docked at a maintenance shop since Washington State ended the runs that they were assigned to.

Washington State Ferries is hoping to realize 9 million dollars for their efforts, 4.5 million per ship.

They go up for bid after American Thanksgiving this Thursday, so start counting those pennies today. And remember, a strong Canadian dollar means good cross border savings for you!
