Ferry delayed 14 hours due to alleged engine trouble
Passengers travelling on the 'Ma Lisha' spent the night at Georgetown's Kingston Goods Wharf, after the ferry departed for Mabaruma about 14 hours late, with many complaining about poor communication and the lack of official updates. The vessel was scheduled to leave the Kingston Goods Wharf on Aug 4, 2026, at 3:00 p.m., but it departed only on Aug 5 at around 5:00 a.m. No official reason behind the delay has been given yet. Many passengers had arrived at the wharf around 9:00 a.m. in order to complete ticketing and load cargo. Some had to wait 20 hours before the ferry finally left. Meanwhile, an APNU Member of Parliament claimed during a livestream that the captain had refused to sail because the ferry was operating with only one engine. However, the claim has not been independently verified. The Transport and Harbours Department (T&HD) and the Ministry of Public Works have also not confirmed it or explained what caused the delay. The incident came short after the sinkking of the 'Barima', and while the two incidents were not linked, the delay was likely to raise more questions about Guyana's ferry services, especially after passengers complained about the lack of information during the wait.
