Work to prepare LYNHER for her journey to Falmouth for her five yearly refit at the A&P dry dock facilities is going extremely well. However, the latest forecast of poor weather and sea conditions for Friday, 28 March means that the tow has been cancelled and rescheduled for Monday, 31 March.
Provided the forecast of improved weather conditions for Monday remains in place. the ferry is expected to leave Torpoint around lunchtime, with the journey taking around six hours.
The ferry is currently due to return to service at the end of May. During the refit period the service is being provided by the two remaining ferries, one leaving each side of the river every 15 minutes (on the hour and 15, 30 and 45 minutes past the hour), between 06:30 and 22:00 and a single half hourly, night service ferry from 2200 to 06:30.
Regular updates on the service are being provided on the Tamar Crossing’s social media channels.
