Ferry named Ferry McFerryfac­e

-

The last ferry in a new Sydney Harbor fleet will be christened Ferry McFerryfac­e – Sydney’s second favourite choice after the now famous jokey Mc-moniker, Boaty McBoatface. New South Wales state government officials overruled the most popular name for the ferry after the trendsette­r was first snubbed last year as a name for a British polar survey vessel. That ship was christened Sir David Attenborou­gh in honour of the naturalist and broadcaste­r and Boaty McBoatface became the name of one of its remotely operated submarines.
