vessel just about to head across Hecate Strait towards Haida Gwaii
The Sunday sailing was delayed owing to a crewing issue

It was a delayed start for travellers today out of the Prince Rupert Fairview Bay terminal for BC Ferries.

That after a crewing issue related to the Sunday sailing for the Northern Adventure between Prince Rupert and Haida Gwaii put the vessel over two hours behind on its schedule sailing timeline.

An advisory from BC Ferries this afternoon notes that the scheduled 10:30 AM departure had been delayed, with the staffing situation resolved the vessel is now underway with an anticipated arrival in Skidegate for 6:30 PM.

Travellers on Haida Gwaii with plans for transit to Prince Rupert later tonight will want to follow the BC Ferries Service Notices page or twitter feed for any updates through the afternoon or early evening.
