The Navigator docked in port this morning to set sail to the 2023 cruise season.
Alas mateys, there’s a big ship at the Port of Corner Brook! The Navigator docked in port this morning to set sail to the 2023 cruise season. Port Business Manager Jennifer Hartley says when there is an iceberg limit vessels will stay clear just to be safe. She says they still expect a record year and there will be four days when 2 cruise lines will visit at the same time. Hartley says they have made a number of changes over the past year to improve on that visitor experience. She says there will be plenty of large vessels using the Bay of Islands over the next few months. To ensure safety on the water, it is important for all watercraft operators to prioritize safety by following regulations and guidelines.
