Additional details

INVIKEN was originally to have arrived off Port Weller piers at around 18:30 to pass up the Welland Canal. At 13:05 however, she went to anchor at the Lake Ontario east anchorage around midlake to undergo engine repairs. Her canal ETA was cancelled as a result. At around 21:00 it was reported that she was again underway for Port Weller and listed her canal ETA as 02:00 on June 14th.
