No service notice as of yet, but the Inspiration has cancelled its 1515 and 1745 round trip on Route 30. At the time of this post, she's still at Duke Point.
Late edit:

I gather that they (BCFS) have not yet indicated just what the problem is with the Inspiration?

I do not have high confidence that this vessel will be back tomorrow... If they're canceling the first round trip, that indicates to me that the necessary repairs will not be completed overnight.
I'm hoping that this doesn't go completely WSF-style and knock the boat out for x-amount of weeks, but if it does, as Scott mentioned, things could get interesting. I guess we shall find out tomorrow.

The NIP will be making a trip to Saltery Bay for Dock Fit Tests on Sunday April, 21 st. This is preparation for the alternate route she will take during the Westview Terminal closure next January-March. Since the Tachek or another replacement vessel is unavailable, the first three round trips that day on Route 18 have been cancelled. Link: www.bcferries.com/bcfservicenotice?id=791523

Better just to paste the link rather than have two consecutive posts where the format clearly doesn't work.

The dreaded NorAd 'Operational Issue' strikes again. What could it be? the sewage system? the big back door? any other guesses?

'RAD Exchange'...does this mean the Skeena will be getting her 4th RAD back? Hopefully, yes. Although I've heard about the possibility of changing out another leg for inspection/rebuild. Hoping that doesn't happen though until after the summer at least so she can maintain the tighter summer Saturday schedule.
