Disasters at Sea
Queen of the North
S2 E3:
The Queen of the North is British Columbia Ferry Services’ crown jewel, a luxurious, 410-foot ship that cruises the rocky islands lining the west coast of Canada. But on March 21, 2006, disaster strikes when the passenger ferry strays off course, hits an island, and fills with icy water. Two passengers are never found, and Canada’s Transportation Safety Board immediately launches an investigation. Facts are hard to come by, but rumors of an extramarital affair between two of the bridge crew spark a surprising theory about the ship’s final moments.
