Wightlink will be offering a limited foot passenger commuter service between Lymington and Yarmouth during peak commuting hours only when temporary wind restrictions force cancellation of its scheduled car ferry service during the working week.
Wightlink has welcomed a team from Amey on board its new fuel-efficient Fishbourne to Portsmouth car ferry Victoria of Wight as part of an Island-wide tour to spread the festive waste reduction and recycling message.
Her Majesty’s Lord-Lieutenant for Hampshire, Nigel Atkinson, has presented awards from the Royal Humane Society to Wightlink Deck Officer Steve Chamberlain, crew members Robbie Mihell, Chris Freemantle and launch coxswain Peter Simmonds for saving a drowning man in Portsmouth Harbour (Fellow crew member Paul Cooke was unable to join them).
