SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE FOR GRY MARITHA & LYONESSE LADY

LYONESSE LADY – PLANNED SURVEYS

The Lyonesse Lady will be out of service for her Lightship and MECAL surveys from Monday 14^th February 2022. The surveys require a haul out which needs to be completed on the mainland. Unfortunately, these dates cannot be moved. We estimate that Lyonesse Lady will return to service on Saturday 19^th February.

SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PLAN FOR GRY MARITHA & LYONESSE LADY

The Gry Maritha & Lyonesse Lady will be out of service for scheduled maintenance from Sunday 27th March 2022 to Wednesday 6^th April 2022.

Scillonian III will transport freight to the islands and Swift Lady will undertake the carriage of off-island freight. There will be the usual restrictions on freight as Scillonian III and Swift Lady will have limited capacity.

During this period, we will only be carrying essential chilled and perishable goods and reduced general goods onboard Scillonian III due to her limited freight carrying capacity. Freight capacity will be allocated on a first come first served basis, with only booked and confirmed items accepted on the day of shipment.

All bookings will need to be confirmed with quantity and weights no later than 15:00 the day before intended delivery via email: freight@issg.co.uk.

If we cannot accept your booking due to being at capacity, we will contact you at the earliest opportunity and advise you on the next available sailing.

To view the Scillonian III schedule and acceptance times, please click here.

Essential “General Goods” must also be booked and will be accepted Monday to Friday between 10:00 – 15:00. (These may not be shipped on day of delivery).

Please note: During this time, the off islands will be serviced by the Swift Lady, and we will therefore only be able to carry essential perishables which are unloaded by hand. The Swift Lady is unable to carry any Dangerous Goods.

Due to the predicted weather forecast of high seas and strong winds, there is a strong possibility that the Gry Maritha will not be able to sail as per the published schedule, as the weather conditions will not allow for a safe return back to Penzance.
