Cargo Arrangements Due To The Non Sailing Of The MV Cabo Star

Repair works on the MV Cabo Star, after a fire on board the vessel on last week Wednesday, are still in progress. A statement from the Port Authority today says the vessel is awaiting a shipment of electrical cables, which are not available locally, to replace those cables that were damaged due to the heat. The Authority says these items are expected to arrive within the country in the coming week. It notes that at this time,the resumption date of the MV Cabo Star has not been determined. The Management says it will continue to schedule sailings of the Galleons Passage for cargo during the period of the repairs, from Saturday September 2nd to Monday September 4th, from POS at 10am and from Scarborough at 5pm. The APT James and the Buccoo Reef will continue to accommodate trucks with weights up to 7,000kgs, based on the availability of space.
