TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinor
May 31, 2022Saltery Bay, BRITISH COLUMBIA (BC)
On 31 May 2022, the ro-ro passenger ferry "MALASPINA SKY" reported cancelling its sailing due to a failure of its uninterruptible power supply system while docked at the ferry terminal in Saltery Bay, BC. After repairs, the ferry resumed its scheduled sailings.
TOTAL FAILURE OF ANY MACHINERY OR TECHNICAL SYSTEMMinor
Dec 4, 2021Earls Cove, BRITISH COLUMBIA (BC)
On 04 December 2021, the passenger/vehicle ferry "MALASPINA SKY" reported sustaining the failure of 1 of its 2 propulsion shaft units after striking a log in Agamemnon Channel, BC.

Hull age

Read from the single most-recent AIS broadcast we hold for this hull — we keep no position history, so this is a point-in-time posture, not a dwell inference. Derived in-house from our own AIS feed; weight it by the broadcast age above.

Hull age52

Flag register25

A coverage-weighted blend of the 2 components we could read for this hull — the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.

Design draught looks implausible for this class and size — the figures above are anchored to it, so treat them with extra caution.

Estimate only — modelled from deadweight (deadweight only) using a first-principles hydrostatic model, not measured hydrostatic tables. The design draught it is anchored to is unreliable across the fleet.
