About 20 B.C. Ferries passengers will receive travel vouchers or some other form of compensation after an illness forced a ferry to leave them behind.
B.C. Ferries spokesman Deborah Marshall said names of the 20 were taken and customer service people will contact them. Marshall said at about 8 p.m. on Tuesday the second officer of the ferry leaving Duke Point for Tsawwassen at 8:15 p.m. fell ill and was taken to hospital.
No replacement was found and that left the ship without sufficient bridge crew to carry passengers as required by Transport Canada regulations.
