On Tuesday May 22nd, the M/V Nantucket lost power to one of the main engines at approximately 7:45 p.m., while rounding Brant Point enroute from Hyannis to Nantucket. The vessel was able to proceed to the dock on the other engine without incident.
The vessel had recently returned from its scheduled dry dock and repairs and earlier in the day had been cleared by the USCG. Prior to the inspection by the Coast Guard the vessel had been taken out by the Steamship Authority crew over the weekend for sea trials. Since it was the first day back on the run, both an SSA Senior Chief Engineer and Chief Engineer were onboard. They diagnosed the issue as a clogged fuel strainer.
The M/V Nantucket returned to Hyannis last night and is scheduled for Coast Guard inspections this morning. The M/V Nantucket will be placed back into service once cleared by the Coast Guard. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and we will provide updates as more information becomes available.
