Another day with no ferry service between Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
Northumberland Ferries says due to ongoing recovery work sailings will not pick back up until Wednesday.
Crossings have been paused since a fire erupted on M.V. Holiday Island last Friday. The emergency forced the evacuation of nearly 200 passengers and 18 crew members.
The ship is now expected to be out of service for the rest of the season.
