Please be advised the MV Confederation is temporarily out of service. All MV Confederation sailings up to and including September 29 are cancelled due to an issue with the de-clutching of the forward end braking propellor which resulted in the vessel colliding with the wharf (dolphin structure) on approach for docking at the berth. This resulted in some structural damage to the bow visor on the ship.

The NFL team is engaging with local ship repair facilities to ramp up external support to repair the damage to the vessel’s bow visor. The estimated time for the ship repairs, including approval to operate is not known, but is likely going to be at least a week or two.  

MV Saaremaa 1 will continue to operate on a four-trip daily schedule.

Departing Caribou, NS: 07:00, 10:00, 13:30, 17:00
Departing Wood Islands, PEI: 08:30, 11:45, 15:15, 18:30

All customers with reservations on sailings up to September 29 will be contacted to arrange a refund or re-book for alternate dates.  NFL will issue a further update, likely mid-week once we have a more detailed timeline for necessary repairs to the ship’s bow visor. Updates will also be provided on our website when further information becomes available.
