Fraser Shipyards, founded in 1888, has built the most technically advanced ice breaking ferry operating on the Great Lakes.
Fraser Shipyards proudly completed the construction of a 150 passenger, 36 car “roll-on/roll-off “ ferry for the Beausoleil First Nation of Christian Island, Ontario.
This state-of-the-art double-ended ice breaking ferry will operate 365 days per year making 12 daily round trips between Christian Island and the mainland in Cedar Point, Ontario. The vessel features two Voith Schneider Propellers, which are advanced propulsion systems that provide accurate maneuverability and control in demanding maritime environments, making it the most technically advanced ferry operating on the Great Lakes. The ferry is ideally suited for frequent docking and operating in confined waters.
