In 2018, it underwent a mid-life refit that included conversion to a dual-fuel system that allows it to use either marine diesel oil or liquefied natural gas.

[3] The ferry was initially powered by four MAN 6L40/54[4] diesel engines driving two shafts creating 21,394 horsepower (15,954 kW).

In 2018, the ferry began a mid-life refit that involved changing the propulsion system to a dual-fuel system comprising four Wärtsilä 34DF dual-fuel engines which allows the ship to use either marine diesel oil or liquefied natural gas to power the ship.

[5] Further changes include navigation and propulsion equipment, steering and evacuation systems, lighting and air conditioning.

The rest of the ship was constructed by Integrated Ferry of Esquimalt, British Columbia with the yard number 559.
