Divers completed preparing the vessel for the trip to Riga and the Finnish Maritime Administration granted permission for taking the vessel to Riga.
Tallink Group announced that "Silja Europa" would be sent to the Riga Shipyard as the shipyards closer to Turku had no available docks for the next week.
The vessel should reach Riga at approximately 1:30 p.m. on Friday. It has not yet been determined how long will the repair works last.
The "Silja Europa" appeared to have technical problems in the steering system on Sunday afternoon when the vessel was on its way from Stockholm to Turku. Passengers or the ship were not at risk.
