Former Fundy Isles MLA Eric Allaby says it was quite the experience a part of the maiden voyage of the new Grand Manan Ferry.
He tells CHSJ News it's amazing to have experienced the launch of two new ferries in his lifetime.
Allaby served the Grand Manan area as a Liberal MLA from 1987 to 2006.
He says the new ferry will enhance business opportunities for the island.
