A medical emergency on Wightlink’s Yarmouth-Lymington ferry service is causing delays of up to 2 hours this morning (Monday). Wight Light has been unable to depart from the port of Yarmouth owing to a medical emergency on board. The Isle of Wight Ambulance Service is in attendance. As a result of the ongoing situation, Wight Sky – which departed from Lymington earlier this morning – has been left bobbing around mid-Solent. Wightlink initially advised of delays of 1 hour but subsequently increased that to 90 minutes. Now, the cross-Solent operator is advising passengers of delays of up to 2 hours.

Bobbing around mid Solent has got to be the quote of the day even week? Hat of the the reporters for not only keeping us up to date but some light humour too,
My thoughts to passenger and must agree with last comment at least medics not on the other company
Any excuse to delay sailings!
