Several sailings cancelled

'Crew availability' was listed as reason for multiple cancellations on Agu 20, 2022. At least a dozen B.C. Ferries sailings along the South Coast were cancelled. As of noon, 12 sailings had been cancelled. A further nine sailings were at risk of cancellation between Swartz Bay, Mayne Island, Pender Island and Tsawwassen. B.C. Ferries later announced modified schedules for the 'Mayne Queen' and 'Salish Heron' to help travellers get to their destinations. The morning cancellations included four sailings between Tsawwassen on the mainland and Swartz Bay on Vancouver Island. Later, B.C. Ferries cancelled the sailings on Aug 21 and 22 on the 'Northern Sea Wolf' between Bella Coola and Port Hardy due to a mechanical issue with the main engine on the vessel.
