Trans-St-Laurent is a ferry built in 1963 by the Davie Shipbuilding Company at Lauzon, Quebec, Canada. It was launched to meet the growing demand in Quebec for the Rivière-du-Loup–Saint-Siméon ferry route across the Saint Lawrence River. This ferry has been a critical transport link, connecting the Bas-Saint-Laurent region with Charlevoix.
