GLADE, BC – Following a successful launch of the first cable ferry ADAMS LAKE II last summer, the sister vessel GLADE II made her first splash last week in the cold waters of the Kootenay River.

Both cable ferries were designed by Capilano Maritime Design Ltd. for the BC Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure, and fabricated by Waterbridge Steel Inc. of Nakusp, BC.

While ADAMS LAKE II is already operating at full regime, GLADE II will soon start servicing the local communities once trials are completed.
