Ferries

Description
A Doman Industries transport truck emerges from the enclosed vehicle deck of the Kahloke ferry, driving up the boarding ramp and onto the gangplank. The truck is hauling long wooden planks. An onlooker, possibly Herb Doman, can be seen to the right of the truck, leaning on the railing of the gangplank. Another onlooker can be seen in the background, looking over the deck of the ferry. The SS Asbury Park was a high-speed coastal steamer built in 1903 in Philadelphia, U.S.A. It was later converted into an automobile ferry and bought by the Puget Sound Navigation Company. From 1953 to 1964 this company sailed it between Vancouver and Nanaimo under the name "Kahloke".
