On January 30, just days after it reached T&T and while on sea trials, the vessel brought to service the inter-island seabridge—Blue Wave Harmony—was damaged during berthing manoeuvres in Tobago.
According to reports obtained by Guardian Media Investigations Desk, the vessel was flagged in 2024 for safety concerns.
With the State having to pay US$25,500 a day, Guardian Media takes a look at what happened at the Port of Scarborough during berthing that damaged the ship’s hull, and what the vessel’s documented history showed about safety oversight before it ever arrived in T&T on January 22.
