The old Victorian Reliance was replaced earlier this year, by the Chinese built Victorian Reliance II. It is beveled that Toll shipping will withdraw Victorian Reliance II which is suffering from leaking shaft seals. Experts from Europe will fly to Australia to undertake the work with the ship in the water.
The old Victorian Reliance has been laid up in Singapore since being replaced, awaiting sale. She has sailed back to Tasmania to fill in from the end of November. She is culturally moored in Bell Bay.
