[citation needed] During a sailing in June 2010 from Jersey to Portsmouth, an electrical issue with a power supply caused a fire onboard Commodore Clipper.

It is said that the severity of the fire was increased by the electrical breakers not tripping when they should have.

[2] On 14 July 2014, the Commodore Clipper became grounded on the Little Roussel, a channel between Herm and Guernsey.

The cause of the incident was found to be poor planning by the crew on board, who had failed to take an unusually low tide into consideration.

[3] The vessel was taken out of service for several weeks and was repaired in Falmouth.
