Queen of Burnaby, Mayne Queen, Bowen Queen and ­Powell River Queen are listed in the corporation’s request for ­proposals.Late last year, B.C. Ferries issued a request for expressions of interest that included the option of a buyer continuing to operate the three smaller ferries — Mayne Queen, Bowen Queen and Powell River Queen, which are 288 feet long and retired in 2022 and 2023.

Buyers who want to recycle a ferry are being asked to provide detailed plans about how the vessel would be taken apart and how work would meet environmental requirements. A B.C. Ferries official said then that the ferry had been temporarily moored in Union Bay but was relocated to Richmond to evaluate options for recycling the ship while meeting safety and environmental requirements.
