Khurram Wadee ✅The trip on the vehicle #Ferrry to the #IsleOfWight from #Southampton takes just an hour. Although we were #pedestrian passengers, we opted for this one since its destination is #EastCowes. The faster passenger-only ferry takes only half as long but docks at #WestCowes on the opposite side of the #estuary.
Mike 🇬🇧 🇪🇺@mkwadee We went on the hovercraft earlier this year - mainly because we've never been on it in our faulty memories.
I much preferred the ferry back to Lymington.

@MikeFromLFE I didn't even know hovercraft operated these days. I went on one to the continent many moons ago.
@mkwadee yes, it's the world's last public hovercraft service. Southsea to Ryde, quick, fairly reliable, and incredibly noisy!
@MikeFromLFE I'm quite sad that they've gone the way of the dodo. I thought the technology was exciting.
