Kanawan develops problems
A number of passengers and vehicles were delayed at the Good Hope/Supenaam Stelling on New Year’s Day for at least 90 minutes after one of the two boat recently acquired from China encountered mechanical problems.
Reports stated that the Kanawan was unable to depart the Supenaam/Good Hope stelling at the scheduled time for Parika, due to a problem with the gang plank attached to the boat. This prevented passengers and vehicles from boarding the vessel.
Due to the delay, passengers left Supenaam nearly three hours later. An employee at Supenaam confirmed the problem and said that the boat didn’t develop problems during its journey to Supenaam stelling.
Passengers said that while they are beginning to enjoy the service provided by the two boats. They added that the problem was not a new one and as such are calling on Transport and Harbours Department to address the fault with immediacy before it develops into something disastrous.
