Dear Member
Once again our Autumn weather has provided temperatures better than some endured in mid-summer, so I hope everyone has managed at least one recent trip on the Ferries before we have to don our winter woollies. Already, however, we’ve had some typical November fogs which Health and Safety has decreed are too thick for our modern navigation systems to cope with! There have also been one or two engineering hiccups, according to the Echo, for which there was no substitute vessel. Meanwhile, we learn that upgrades of the hydraulics for the rescue craft on the two service ferries improve launch capabilities.
