BC Ferries has cancelled several sailings to and from Vancouver Island on Sunday due to mechanical problems on the Queen of New Westminster.

Now, those propeller issues are impacting a couple more sailings into Monday morning.

The 6 a.m. sailing from Tsawwassen to Swartz Bay has been cancelled, and the 8 a.m. sailing from Swartz Bay to Tsawwassen has been cancelled.

The 2 p.m., 6 p.m., and 10 p.m. Swartz Bay to Tsawwassen sailings were also cancelled.

The cancellations come after some Sunday morning sailings were called off due to a problem with one of the controllable pitch propellers on the Queen of New Westminster.

Customers with reservations on cancelled sailings will be refunded their reservation fee, and will be accommodated on the next available sailing.

Passengers can visit the BC Ferries website for updates and information on how to get a refund for cancelled trips.
