My friend @pmount@onephoto.club just wrapped up an interesting “freighter cruise” trip in British Columbia. Had never heard of these:

With Marine Link Tours, cruise the inland waterways of coastal BC on the magical MV Aurora Explorer! Our 135-foot landing craft transports heavy equipment & freight as you enjoy rugged coastal scenery & abundant sea life. The ship’s chef will prepare first class meals while you experience the ambience of small group cruising and visit working logging camps, remote villages and other unique coastal destinations.
