Repairs of allision damage only during next maintenance
The damage, the 'Skåne' which operates on the route Rostock - Trelleborg, suffered on March 11, when the ferry 'Tinker Bell' allided with the ferry in Trelleborg, has not yet been repaired. The relevant authorities and the classification society had declared the ship fit for service, stating that the damage did not affect its operational capability. The repairs will be carried out during the 'Skåne's next scheduled shipyard stay in early 2027. The advantage is that this can be planned well in advance, so that repairs can be carried out as efficiently as possible, and a solution for traffic operations can be organised in good time. Together with its sister ship, the 'Mecklenburg-Vorpommern', the 'Skåne' serves the Rostock–Trelleborg route three times a day in each direction.

Tinker Bell detained after allision
Before the ferry 'Tinker Bell' drove straight into the 'Skåne', which was berthed at the quay in Trelleborg, the ship had left the shipyard in Klaipeda in an unseaworthy condition, according to the Swedish Transport Agency's inspection certificate. The ferry has been idle in the port of Trelleborg for ten days as of March 23, after it was banned from operating by the Swedish Transport Agency due to a number of defiencies, regarding both technology and safety systems as well as environmental and working conditions on board. The 'Tinker Bell' was prohibited from sailing further until the deficiencies are remedied. The Swedish Transport Agency listed 13 deficiencies in fire protection systems, including engine rooms. One point concerned deficiencies in emergency power sources. Another point concerned deficiencies in maintenance and inspection of life-saving appliances, four pointed out to deficiencies in the area of environmental and working conditions. Among other things, defiencies regarding health and safety protection and accident prevention work, and also accommodation and leisure facilities were found and caused the sailing ban according to the Ship Safety Act. The 'Tinker Bell' was finally released on March 24 and headed to Travemünde, where it arrived on March 25.

One ferry returned to service
While the "Skåne" was back in service on March 13, despite the significant damage, the fate of the 'Tinker Bell' remained unclear with teh ship remaining stationary in Trelleborg. While the dent in the bow of the "Skåne" was clearly visible, no safety-related defects were found on Stena Line ferry during the investigations by the authorities and the classification society. The "Tinker Bell" had just arrived from a shipyard in Klaipėda, Lithuania, and therefore had no passengers on board. It was scheduled to return to service between Trelleborg and Travemünde. The Swedish authorities were investigating the exact circumstances of the allision. The condition of both ferries was examined, including hull surveys by divers. A technical defect in the steering system of the TT-Line ferry was thought to have caused the incident.
