BC Ferries cancels sailings between Vancouver Island and Gulf Islands Sunday, other sailings rescheduled
Adding to what has already been a chaotic weekend for sailing, BC Ferries has cancelled several sailings on Sunday.

The following sailings are cancelled Sunday:
- 5:10 pm departing Swartz Bay (Victoria)
- 6:05 pm departing Otter Bay (Pender Island)
- 7:05 pm departing Swarz Bay (Victoria)
- 8:00 pm departing Otter Bay (Pender Island)
- 8:45 pm departing Village Bay (Mayne Island)
- 9:20 pm departing Otter Bay (Pender Island)
As a result of the cancellations, the schedules for the Salish Eagle and the Queen of Cumberland are operating on revised schedules Sunday.
Those who have bookings on the revised sailings will be notified of the changed departure times, BC Ferries says.
