About BAYNES SOUND CONNECT
Baynes Sound Connector is a car ferry owned and operated by B.C. Ferries that runs between Buckley Bay on Vancouver Island and Denman Island. It is the first and only cable ferry in the BC Ferries fleet and replaced the self-propelled MV Quinitsa in February 2016. Red and green transit lights are installed at both Buckley Bay and Denman West terminals facing oncoming marine traffic in each direction. It is illegal to cross the channel while the red light is on, signifying the ferry is in transit. The crossing with a length of 1,961.48 metres (6,435.3 ft) is the longest cable ferry crossing in the world. It uses two guide cables and a third driving cable.
