Fitting out continues

 It's Sunday, but there's still work going on on the new ferry Christopher Stannix today in order for the ship to be delivered soon.  A few of the AF Theriault crew came down to the wharf  in Saulnierville for work on the bridge and interior.  Here's a link to my Youtube video taken today



Before the Christopher Stannix was launched this year, the Halifax III (pictured here in front of Bluenose II in Lunenburg last September) and Dartmouth III were constructed in 1979 while the Woodside I was built in 1986.  All three ships were constructed at Ferguson/Pictou Industries.  The last build they made was the MV Confederation, the ferry currently connecting Wood Islands, PE and Caribou, N.S. 21 years ago.  Info from shipbuildinghistory.com
