Hydrofoil passenger ferry could be coming to B.C. in the near future

The Artemis EF-12 Escape, a hydrofoil ferry produced by Artemis Technologies in Belfast, conducts a demo off of Victoria's Inner Harbour. The Artemis EF-12 Escape, a hydrofoil ferry produced by Artemis Technologies in Belfast, conducts a demo off of Victoria's Inner Harbour. The Artemis EF-12 Escape took to the waters off Victoria's Inner Harbour Monday, and could one day be the future of passenger-only ferry service in B.C. It's fully electric and equipped with hydrofoils, or wings, underneath its hull, lifting the vessel out of the water while at cruising speed. The hydrofoils dramatically reduce its drag while travelling through the water, allowing it to reach speeds of up to 30 knots. That's double the pace of a conventional ferry, all while using half the energy. FRS Clipper has partnered with Victoria-based consulting group Greenline Ferries in bringing Artemis Technologies and the Escape to B.C. The group is looking at the feasibility of using this technology in the Pacific Northwest. 'This could be a game changer for the number of routes that we can supply to British Columbians,' said Mark Collins, CEO of FRS Clipper. Collins said the technology is sustainable and cost-effective, with the price of a vessel being comparable to the cost of a conventional ferry, although it's operating costs are much less. FRS Clipper is considering an expansion between Bowen Island, Gibsons and downtown Vancouver. If that were to prove successful, the company said a route between Colwood's Beachlands development and Victoria's Inner Harbour would not be out of the question. 'We call them shortcuts, anywhere where you can connect the heart of one community to the heart of another community, that's the opportunity for a passenger-only ferry,' said Callum Campbell, CEO of Greenline Ferries. The Artemis EF-12 Escape is a water taxi version that could be configured to carry up to 30 passengers. FRS Clipper is exploring purchasing the EF-24 Passenger version that is capable of carrying up to 150 passengers, which Artemis will be rolling out later this year. 'It is a little small for our projections on the Victoria to Seattle route, however that doesn't say that one day there could be two or even three operating alongside each other providing more frequency and more choices,' said Collins. The seemingly floating vessel's technology could offer a smoother ride in rough waters with a lighter environmental footprint.

(Eric Taschner/CTV News) Coun. Justine Mallah said the project is going as planned so far. 'We are on budget and on time and you don't always hear that when it comes to construction,' Mallah said. EllisDon Corp. is taking the lead on the construction, teamed with J.L. Richards & Associates and BBB Architects.

(Eric Taschner/CTV News) The $63 million project is supported by up to $25.778 million from the Government of Canada's Green and Inclusive Community Buildings program. Council voted to proceed with the construction in mid-November 2024. The latest report said all micropiles have been installed and the foundation work is moving forward. To date, the project has incurred minimal extra costs due to site preparation ($8,200) with final measurements and invoicing for groundwork to be completed at the end of May. The arena will include two ice pads, a community room, a walking track and 14 dressing rooms. The complex will have 408 parking spots.

(Eric Taschner/CTV News) While the trade war with the United States poses some risk to the project budget, the reports said no tariff-related costs have been incurred so far. 'We've planned ahead and have been stockpiling. We've also been getting materials from Canadian suppliers, which is very important,' Mallah noted. 'We're working closely with EllisDon and there are a couple of pieces that could be potentially affected by tariffs.' Tariff-related risks The report said the project team has implemented take steps to mitigate tariff-related risks. These include assessing supply chain vulnerabilities to potential tariffs, sourcing materials from alternative suppliers less impacted by trade restrictions and securing critical materials in advance to lock in costs to avoid future price increases. The design includes a 300-square-foot space for a food services vendor, delivered as a base shell with basic utilities stubbed to the space. A request for proposals will be issued shortly to select a vendor to provide food and drinks tailored to the community centre's sports and community activities. The vendor will be responsible for costs such as ventilation and equipment, ensuring no additional impact on the project budget. 'It's really a great opportunity to have a presentation from staff,' Mallah added. 'We know that this is a project that community members care about and members of city council care about.' Construction is scheduled to end in August 2026.
