The ferry service between Wood Islands and Caribou will have two ships in rotation for the busy tourist season starting today. This is the first season the MV Northumberland — previously the MV 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 from each side.
