I'm sorry Dennis. My ignorance for not recognizing the Seniors in our group. And you mean an $8.60 discount,not an additional rate do you not?
Here's Debbie and our vette the last time we went to the island. Our vette likes ferry rides!
Hmmmm. I wonder if I qualify for that discount?So strange you posted that as I just looked it up and was going to post as well. I may add for guys like my self, there is a senior rate of $8.60
Regular price for adults and children 12 and over is $17.20 Old guys (rule) $8.60 and gals.I'm sorry Dennis. My ignorance for not recognizing the Seniors in our group. And you mean an $8.60 discount,not an additional rate do you not?
Great picture. That would be Bonnie guarding the car so no one gets too close. We just came back from two ferry trips in the interior of B.C from Nelson down to Galena Bay.
Very cool Brent. Debbie looks pretty happy to be on a boat!! You see how tight they pack em in there. Hopefully,if we had 10/15/20 Corvettes,we'd be in with the semis,or in our own cluster. And like previously mentioned. I'd be more comfortable with some of us keeping an eye on our cars. Taking turns as not fair to miss the scenery. Sadly guys,crime takes place on the ferries too.
Tofino is beautiful Brian, you would love it. And hey, put some miles on that beautiful ZR1 - life is meant to be enjoyed!I am going to hire Mike as my travel assistant.
I have only been to the southern part on the Island ( Nanaimo south ) and I wonder what I am missing up north.
It could be an idea for me to do but maybe not in the ZR1...unless I win the lottery and say F'it on mileage and drive the car all over.
Tofino has been an area i have wanted to visit.
Maybe one day.

Most are respectful of nice cars, but it would just take one idot to ruin that moment. I'm sure there would be many volunteers to watch the cars! It would be a fun trip and enough of us have done it before and can add something to the trip.
I guess I've been lucky so far and probably more trusting than I should be. Yes, it would only take one idiot and with a large group of Corvettes, a "look out" would probably be a smart idea.
The road to Tofino is a beautiful drive with stops in many places along the way. It should be an overnight stop as the ocean scenery and fresh air should be inhaled for more than just a few moments.
Absolutely Dennis! I would hate to rush that part of the trip. The sights, the smells - fantastic!
Yes it is a fantastic experience. I was there 25 years ago, a school friend of mine was married on the beach. Tofino is quite a breathtaking place. I guess next year will give us more time to plan and buget for the trip.
Here's a vid from 10 years ago boarding the " Spirit of British Columbia " back in August 2007. I was driving a brand new 2007 Subaru Impreza Sport wagon. You guys all know how small these cars are. They pack em in there boys !! You that have recently been on the boats can attest. This is the upper car deck. Semis underneath. You gotta remember too. This is August. September is usually not as busy,from my experiences anyway.

No thanks...... don't care for that.
I have driven my car down the Oregon and Cali coast..... done some amazing drives. I would like to see some more of the Island one but fine doing it with my daily driver.
Don't need to find out my lower CF front spoiler won't make it through a lower dip boarding or whatever. And the sides too.
