Summer 2002

The Schedule represents the peak volume period for BC Ferries.  The weather is typically hot, people are tired and tempers are short.  Any delay is bad but how bad was it this summer?  The following data was summarized from BC Ferries own web site represents approximately 90% of the actual sailings.  The data was captured at about 23:30 each night then summarized into the following reports.  If you have an idea for a report please write me at robertwjones@dccnet.com.
