Recently the peele ferry, was put up for bid, sealed tender. It was an as is auction FOB sarnia. Iheard, through the grapevine that the N.L government was the successful bidder. The game plan is tow her to PWDD {mckeil?} And bring her up to snuff. A crew from the n.l. ferry service will sail her to newfoundland. They probably paid not a lot so can spend money to bring her up to class.
