Cancellations

Due to weather or other unexpected issues, we do cancel one or both ferries from time to time. 

On occasion we need to go to a restricted timetable, if the conditions are too rough for our smaller vessel.

In the case of a full cancellation, replacement shuttles are no longer provided.
