Yesterday, I took a trip over to the Isle of Wight from Hamble village with the new ferry service that is now operating. The owner was telling me about what a bad season he's been having and how he has found it hard to get the word about.
I work in Cowes very often and think that I will use this chap for commuting....but certainly during Cowes Week I will be going over every day. If anybody else is up for it, please get in touch as he needs a minimum of two passengers to run!
He charges £20 for a return and he says that he will run late into the night.
It seems a good idea, but we as a community need to get behind these enterprises to avoid losing them. If you want to contact them directly, they are the Island Harbour Ferry (dont have a number unfortunately-but there are leaflets in the village).
