Coastal Inspiration, the second of three new Super C-class vessels, stopped in 

Las Palmas, Canary Islands over the weekend for refuelling and is now en route across the  

Atlantic Ocean to Panama.  The vessel is expected to arrive in Panama in approximately 10 days, 

depending on weather during the trans-Atlantic crossing.    

 The voyage is going extremely well according to the ship’s crew.   

 BC Ferries looks forward to welcoming Coastal Inspiration home to B.C. in late March. 

The ship’s progress including course, position and speed can be viewed from a link on  

BC Ferries’ homepage at www.bcferries.com.
