BC Ferries to distribute drydocking and repair services among three BC shipyards, including Seaspan and Allied in North Vancouver, and Victoria's Point Hope Shipyards, for the next 5 years.

B.C. Ferries plans to distribute drydocking and repair services for its fleet among three British Columbia shipyards over the next 5 years: Seaspan and Allied in North Vancouver (each getting 46% of work, $14.5M/year) and Victoria's Point Hope Shipyards (6%). This follows Seaspan's recent approval to expand its North Vancouver drydock facilities. Contracts, lasting up to 10 years, aim to improve efficiency and long-range planning.
