MV Northumberland has arrived in Canada

The MV Northumberland (formerly the MV Fanafjord) arrived in Canada on Sunday.  The vessel, which will serve the Wood Islands – Caribou route, was acquired by the federal government as an interim replacement for the former MV Holiday Island, which had to be taken out of service after a fire in July of 2022.  The MV Northumberland will now undergo final refit work to prepare for service. The vessel is expected to be ready for service for the beginning of the 2025 operating season.
