Everything's Rosie with the Fundy Rose

For those curious about how the new to us Fundy Rose (former Blue Star Ithaki) is making out on her new route, she's doing a fantastic job so far and everything is (pardon the pun) Rosie.  Within her first week, she turned things around from running late the first 5-6 days to now being on time or early, making the Bay of Fundy crossing between Digby and Saint John in 2 hours sometimes (before her introduction in service it was a 3 hour sailing).  The tradition of safe reliable service continues and, like her predecessor, comes and goes quietly from each port.  I still remain optimistic that during peak fisheries exports in the winter she will do just fine with two sailings daily to meet the demand of commercial customers.
