P&O MV European Causeway Ferry Arrives Larne Port Co Antrim

I was up at Larne port Co Antrim, on Saturday 1st of April and I happened to be at the right place at the right time to see the arrival of the P&O European Causeway Ferry into harbour. In March 2022, the vessel was detained at Larne by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency, due to "failures on crew familiarisation, vessel documentation and crew training", after a new crew was installed, following P&O sacking 800 staff! On the 27th of April 2022, European Causeway suffered a complete power loss just off the coast of Larne. The RNLI dispatched three lifeboats to the vessel's location, a coastguard helicopter was dispatched and the Queen Victoria stood by to assist if required. The ship recovered power after roughly 2 hours adrift and continued the voyage to Larne under her own power, escorted by the lifeboats.
