The Gry Maritha is currently being loaded in Penzance by our freight team. We are monitoring the weather forecast to identify a weather window to depart Penzance as soon as it is safe to do so but is likely to be towards the end of the weekend.

As a result of the delayed sailing this impacts the scheduled sailing on Monday 8^th and Tuesday 9^th December. The decision has been made to cancel the scheduled departure on Monday 8^th December.

General freight will continue to be accepted as normal in Penzance. However, all chilled, frozen, and perishable items will need to be cancelled and rebooked onto the next available sailing.

The next planned sailing is scheduled for Wednesday 10^th December 2025.

Due to the ongoing unsettled and changeable weather conditions, we are expecting disruption to sailings over the next few days. At this stage, we will be proceeding with loading all cargo, including perishable goods, tomorrow as planned and in line with the published schedule.

However, based on the current forecast, it is unlikely that the Gry Maritha will be able to sail on Friday or Saturday. We are monitoring a potential weather window on Sunday/Monday. If conditions remain suitable, we aim to depart Penzance for the Isles of Scilly on Sunday.

Our team will continue to keep a close watch on the forecast as plans may need to adjust if conditions change.

If you do not wish to ship perishable goods on this sailing, please contact us to cancel your booking.

We will provide further updates but, in the meantime, thank you for your understanding.
