This in from Wightlink, in their own words. Ed
Please be advised that due to an earlier operational problem this morning at our Portsmouth Gunwharf Terminal, engine problems on St Cecilia, combined with the adverse weather conditions we are running a delayed service on the Portsmouth – Fishbourne car ferry service.
It has also been necessary to cancel the following sailings
From Portsmouth: 1330
From Fishbourne: 1430
Due to very high volumes of traffic at Fishbourne, coupled with the delay to service there are long queues into the terminal, therefore we are regrettably not allowing any customers without a booking into the terminal or taking standby traffic. Any customers without a booking are advised to postpone their journey until later this evening. Passengers are still advised to check-in on time for their sailing.
Further updates will follow in due course. We’re sorry for any inconvenience caused by this. If you have any concerns about your crossings please contact us on 0871 376 1000 (calls cost 7p per minute plus network extras).
