History of Gabriola’s Quinsam ferry
If you happen to be interested in the history of Gabriola’s Quinsam ferry, you might like to glance at Quinsam sails into the future, which the Daily News published today. The article is just what you’d expect, complete with standard quotations like It’s all part of the charm of living on Gabriola….
and so forth. But it does have a historic timeline of the MV Quinsam at the bottom of the article.
(Gabriola historians: is the timeline accurate?)

The 1995 in the time line should probably read 1985, the year BC Ferries took over the route. The article contains some good information, though.
