A report was submitted to the Norwegian Maritime Directorate and other authorities by Regional Manager for Ferries in Norled. The pictures taken by the diver did not show any damage to the hull but to rudder and propeller. The extent will only known once the ferry has been drydocked and examined thoroughly. It was currently uncertain how long she would have to remain out of service.
