The Wolfe Islander IV is a zero emission ferry boat which will serve between Kingston, Ontario and Wolfe Island, thus replacing the MV Wolfe Islander III.[1][2] The MV Wolfe Islander IV was constructed with another ferry, the Amherst Islander II, using the same zero emission technology and which will serve between Amherst Island and Millhaven, Ontario.[2]
The Wolfe Islander IV was built at the Damen Galați shipyard in Romania. It was anticipated to be brought into service in Q2 2022.[3]
The ferry will be in service in August 2024.
