DURING the first week of the school summer holidays, Red Funnel will be cancelling a number of sailings due to essential maintenance to one of its fleet.  

Red Funnel is advising customers of a revised timetable on its East Cowes to Southampton service, next Tuesday (July 30).

"Essential maintenance to Red Osprey’s aft main engine, means it has been necessary to cancel a number of sailings, at what is possibly the busiest time of the year," said Red Funnel, on its website.
