Unfortunately, due to a technical issue with Gry Maritha’s gyroscope, today’s sailing has been cancelled.

Despite extensive efforts to complete repairs late into yesterday evening, the issue has not yet been resolved. Our engineering teams continue to work to rectify the fault as quickly as possible.

We have successfully chartered Obervargh, Valonia and Tean, which will undertake multiple freight runs to maintain deliveries to and from the islands. All freight booked for today, Thursday 2 April, will be prioritised on these vessels, as well as on Scillonian III sailings tomorrow.

Please note that we will need to cancel all chilled, frozen and perishable freight currently booked for delivery tomorrow, Friday 3 April 2026.
