here is the latest on the ferry sinking. it's now 99 instead of 102 people. Passengers, crew safe after B.C. ferry sinks Last Updated Wed, 22 Mar 2006 11:59:39 EST CBC News All 99 passengers and crew are safe Wednesday after the ferry they were travelling on sank in choppy waters off the northern coast of British Columbia. more ..... cbc.ca the ferry that travels from port rupert to skidegate landing on the queen charlottes generally takes 5 1/2 hours, but has taken as long as 36. when the weather blows up, the strait is not navigable and the ferry will take shelter behind one of the coastal islands and just wait it out. this experience must have been very frightening. -joser
