The ferry will pick up singles from Vancouver at 5:30 p.m. and from Nanaimo at 7:30 p.m. The vessel will return Vancouver residents to downtown Vancouver before heading back to Nanaimo on the 9:30 p.m. sailing.
The event will be filmed and shared to social media, the press release noted, and marketing agency King Ursa will assist Hullo with the event.
Hullo ferries began sailing last August and France said the community has been incredible, but there is still room to grow. He said the company anticipates it will soon be able to announce plans to up its spring sailing schedule from four round trips per day to six on the five busiest travel days of the week.
