Embark: Ferry Art was organised by CAN Project and featured the work of seven contemporary artists. Their work was shown on The King Harry Ferry (near Truro in Cornwall) on a monthly basis from April 2007. Boon's work featured throughout May.

The series of drawings Poor Baby (below) was made for the exhibition and continued to explore "the intagibility of what it is that makes us who we are". Most of the birds drawn for the exhibition were found in the artist's garden (not far from the ferry itself) and reveal her sense of awe in holding something so elusive and fragile in her hands. The drawings were printed on self-adhesive vinyl and glued to the walls of the ferry, which are open to the elements. In this process she considered the glued birds, symbol of freedom, mirroring her consciousness of being stuck in the geographically remote county of Cornwall.
