The K-class ferries (often referred to as 'K-barges', due to their hull type and size) are a group of similarly designed ferries operated by both BC Ferries and TransLink in British Columbia, Canada. With the exception of MV Kuper, all of the listed K-class vessels were built for service in British Columbia's Ministry of Highways salt water inter-island ferry fleet which was absorbed by BC Ferries in 1985. BC FerriesMV Klitsa
Built: 1972, Vancouver, British Columbia
MV Kahloke Built: 1973, Vancouver, British Columbia Length: 54.75 m (179'6)
MV Kwuna Built: 1975, Victoria, British Columbia Length: 71.64 m (235'4)
MV Kuper[1]
Built: 1985, Bullfrog, Utah Rebuilt: 2006, Vancouver, British Columbia Length: 52.21 m (171'3.5)
Route: Chemainus ↔ Thetis Island ↔ Penelakut Island
The former MV John Atlantic Burr operated on Utah's Lake Powell as of early September 2005. The following winter, the vessel was cut into four sections, transported by truck to British Columbia, and reassembled as MV Kuper, with significant modification and enlargement. The ship cost {{US$}} 200,000 and {{CAD}}$4.5 million to refit and enlarge, which was considered quite a savings compared to the cost of building a new vessel which was estimated at {{CAD}}$20 million. TransLinkMV Kulleet Built: 1972, Vancouver, British Columbia
MV Klatawa Built: 1972, Vancouver, British Columbia
Both Kulleet and Klatawa were owned and operated by Metro Vancouver's Transportation Authority, TransLink, and they ran the Albion ↔ Fort Langley route on the Fraser River, between the Maple Ridge suburb of Albion on the North, to McMillan Island in Fort Langley, to the south. On July 31, 2009, the Albion Ferry shut down after the opening of the Golden Ears Bridge. The ferry had connected Maple Ridge and Langley via the Fraser River since 1957. Kulleet and Klatawa were put into service in the 1980s. The two Albion ferries have been sold for $400,000 - less than half of the original asking price of $1.1 million - TransLink has confirmed. The regional transportation authority said in a news release on December 30, 2011 that MV Kulleet and MV Klatawa have been bought by Tidal Towing, a B.C.-based company.
