M.V. Columbia
In June of 2012, WaterBridge Steel was awarded the contract by the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure to design and build an 80 car commercial ferry to run on the Shelter Bay to Galena Bay route on Arrow Lake in the Central Kootenays. The ferry replaced two existing smaller vessels that were reaching the end of their life-cycle. The new vessel is 320 feet long, 64 feet wide and weights approximately 2.5 million pounds (1100 Metric Tons). It was designed and built over a period of approximately 24 months on the shores of Upper Arrow Lake in the picturesque village of Nakusp, BC. The new ferry, the M.V. Columbia, was formally delivered to the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure and went into service on June 26, 2014.
