A speeding car broke through a barrier gate and then drove off a docked BC Ferries boat early Wednesday.

A release from BC Ferries said that at about 3:45 a.m. PT, a vehicle at the Descanso Bay terminal sped through the gate at the top of the loading trestle.

The vehicle then launched off the loading ramp and landed on the deck of the MV Quinsam, which was tied up in dock.

The car then continued speeding along and off the ferry deck, plunging into the water. Officials believe the vehicle then sank.

Gabriola RCMP, a Coast Guard hovercraft, firefighters and BC Ambulance Services were at the terminal Wednesday morning.

At 6 a.m., BC Ferries said it had cancelled all sailings between Gabriola Island and nearby Nanaimo Harbour until further notice. It said it has arranged water taxi service for foot passengers.
