On the Meridian New this morning they reported that one of the High Speed ferries that travels between Southampton and Cowes had engine failure. They showed pictures of a 36ftplus yacht stuck between the two hulls. Pretty scary for the sailer!

Anyone have any more info on this.

The report I heard said that the yacht was moored / at anchor and the ferry hit it when it lost the engines. The passangers had to be 'rescued' and were brought ashore before the ferry was finally towed in.
