TSAWWASSEN (NEWS 1130) – Good news if you are heading to the ferry terminal in Tsawwassen today–one of the barges that was out of order has been fixed and will be back in action as of noon today.

A pair of sailings were cancelled last night and the 8 a.m. ferry leaving Tsawwassen for Swartz Bay and the 10 a.m. sailing coming back the other way were cancelled earlier today as the Queen of New Westminster had a mechanical problem. B.C. Ferries says it was taken out of service last night to have some testing done with a “specialized technician”.

Hello, the Queen of New Westminster's 6:00pm and 8:00pm sailings this evening have been cancelled due to a starboard shaft pitch mechanical issue. A Service Notice will be posted shortly. ^es — BC Ferries (@BCFerries) July 15, 2018

Last weekend, the same boat was taken out of commission the majority of the Sunday sailings and then again for a couple trips on Monday morning due to a propeller issue–the same issue at the boat is experiencing again today.
