Update as of 1/29: The Machigonne II will be delivered to the shipyard for a routine dry dock and Coast Guard hull inspection on Tuesday, February 4th after the 10:45 am trip from Portland (11:15 am trip from Peaks Island). Lionel Plante Associates (LPA) will begin operating the alternate vehicle schedule beginning with the 12 pm departure from Portland (12:45 pm from LPA on Peaks Island) on February 4th.
Depending upon weather and the schedule for repairs, she may be at the yard for approximately 6 to 8 weeks. During this period of time, as is the customary practice, Lionel Plante Associates will provide vehicle transportation to and from Peaks on a temporary alternate vehicle schedule.
The alternate vehicle schedule is included below, can be viewed here on our website, will be posted on the vessels, and is available in the terminal. LPA will be running their larger vessel so capacity per trip will also be increased and vehicles will be loaded on a first come, first served basis. Reservations can still be made for commercial vehicles through Casco Bay Lines.
