T-class ferry : ウィキペディア英語版 | T-class ferry
BC Ferries operates two T class ferries for use on small inter-island routes. They have raised bows, which make it easier for the ships to travel in the rough seas often found on British Columbia's central coast. The ferries carry 30 cars and 150 passengers. Both were built in 1969. They were originally owned and operated by BC's Ministry of Transportation and Highways until 1985, when the Ministry's saltwater ferries and routes were transferred to BC Ferries, including the T-Class. The two T-class ferries are ''Tachek'' and ''Quadra Queen II''.〔 MV ''Tachek'' was built in 1969 in Vancouver, BC by Allied Shipbuilders.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=MV Tachek )〕 She was originally named ''Texada Queen'' and was used on the Powell River-Blubber Bay route, serving her namesake Texada Island. She was renamed ''Tachek'' in 1977, and continued serving Texada Island until 1979 when the larger ''North Island Princess'' replaced her. Since then, she has served as an auxiliary vessel, providing additional capacity where demand is needed and serving as a backup ferry when other ferries are out of service. As of 2013, she is used on the route between Denman Island and Hornby Island from mid-fall to mid-spring, and serves as a backup vessel for the rest of the year, tied up at Blubber Bay when not in use.〔 On 15 December 2012, ''Tachek'' was removed from service to undergo a nine-month life-extension project.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bcferries.com/bcfservicenotice?id=758274 )〕 MV ''Quadra Queen II'' was built in 1969, also by Allied Shipbuilders in Vancouver, BC. She replaced the original ''Quadra Queen'' on the Campbell River–Quathiaski Cove (Quadra Island) route. ''Quadra Queen'' was renamed ''Cortes Queen'' and later . In the late-1980s or early-1990s, ''Quadra Queen II'' was relocated to the Port McNeill-Alert Bay-Sointula route. As of April 2013, the ferry still serves this route.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bcferries.com/onboard-experiences/fleet/profile-quadra_queen_ii.html )〕 From April 2010 to May 2011, ''Quadra Queen II'' underwent a life extension project meant to prepare the vessel for another 20 years of service. ==References==
