After a two-day delay in launching British Columbia's newest ferry service, the inaugural sailing of the Hullo foot-passenger ferry left Nanaimo for Vancouver on Wednesday.
The successful start came after all scheduled sailings on Monday and Tuesday were unexpectedly scrapped.
Hullo CEO Alistair Caddick told CTV News the company would embark on a "deliberately conservative stance" in its reorganized launch. Hullo is cutting its sailings in half, not operating the originally planned first and last departures between the two cities. The service is now slated to leave Nanaimo daily at 10 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. and depart Vancouver at noon and 6:30 p.m.
