Following yesterday’s technical fault affecting Scillonian III’s starboard engine, we can confirm that the issue has now been identified.

The fault was caused by a failed rotocap and valve guide, which led to increased wear and elevated air pressure within the crankcase.

Repairs, valve checking and testing are currently being undertaken, and we anticipate that the work will be completed by Sunday 12 April, with the vessel returning to scheduled operations from Monday 13 April 2026.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your patience and understanding.
