Two ships for PEI- NS ferry service

The ferry service between P-E-I and Nova Scotia will have two ships in rotation for the busy tourist season starting tomorrow.This is the first season the M-V Northumberland — previously the M-V Fanafjord — will be on the water. Ottawa purchased the ferry from its Norwegian owner as a replacement for the Holiday Island, which had to be scrapped after a fire in the summer of 2022.With the two ships in operation there will be eight scheduled crossings a day.
