About MV Queen of Burnaby
The V-class ferries, also known as the Victoria class, originally included seven ferries operated by BC Ferries built between 1962 and 1965. The V class were a continuation of the previous Sidney-class design with some cosmetic changes and different engines. These vessels were the backbone of service on the Tsawwassen – Swartz Bay route prior to the arrival of MV Spirit of British Columbia in 1993. Four of these vessels underwent vehicle capacity increases three times. The lead ship of the class, Queen of Victoria suffered significant damage in a collision in 1970. Two of the ferries are also known as the Burnaby class, built between 1964 and 1965. There are two ships in this class are MV Queen of Burnaby and MV Queen of Nanaimo. Both are propelled by controllable-pitch propellers.
