On 31 May 2022, the ro-ro passenger ferry "MALASPINA SKY" reported cancelling its sailing due to a failure of its uninterruptible power supply system while docked at the ferry terminal in Saltery Bay, BC. After repairs, the ferry resumed its scheduled sailings.
On 04 December 2021, the passenger/vehicle ferry "MALASPINA SKY" reported sustaining the failure of 1 of its 2 propulsion shaft units after striking a log in Agamemnon Channel, BC. With 1 propulsion shaft unit, the "MALASPINA SKY" reached the ferry terminal in Saltery Bay, BC where the tug "JERVIS DEFENDER" assisted the ferry in berthing.
On 28 October 2020, the passenger and vehicle ferry "MALASPINA SKY" reported the total failure of one of its propulsion units in Jervis Inlet, BC. The vessel secured alongside at Earls Cove, BC, to effect repairs
On 02 July 2019, the passenger ferry "ISLAND SKY", with 79 people on board, reported a close quarters situation with an unknown aluminum vessel In Jervis Inlet, BC. The ferry took evasive action to avoid the collision.

Operational Status
Making way at sea speed on its latest broadcast.
Read from the single most-recent AIS broadcast we hold for this hull — we keep no position history, so this is a point-in-time posture, not a dwell inference. Derived in-house from our own AIS feed; weight it by the broadcast age above.
Composite Risk
Multiple adverse factors, or a hard ship-specific signal, lift this hull above the fleet norm.
A coverage-weighted blend of the 2 components we could read for this hull — the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.
