Tancook Island ferry undergoing refit
The lamented William G. Ernst has arrived at AF Theriault and son in Meteghan River last week and is now hauled up for what I presume a refit. She was sidelined with engine troubles last year causing the people of Tancook Island to use a whale watching boat to the mainland. Also, Transport Canada cut her capacity in half last year worrying everyone on the island. This is a ferry that is vital to Tancook Island and its residents. The William G. Ernst was built in 1982 in Georgetown, Prince Edward Island. Link to my blog post on her visit from 2011 (her last refit period)
