Wightlink Ferries MV Wight Sky - Further Ferry Information and Vessel Description

MV Wight Sky, the second of three new vessels built for Wightlink, is a completely new design of vessel, using a more people-friendly layout. The design by naval architects Hart Fenton & Company, utilises fixed and mobile mezzanine decks, complete disabled access and a larger cafe and sundeck area. There is a passenger lift between the car deck and passenger decks. The three previous vessels that ran the Lymington to Yarmouth route were retired and initially stored at Portsmouth. 35-year-old MV Cenred was brought back into service on 12 March 2009, when MV Wight Sky broke down and was taken out of service for repairs to her hydraulic ramp.

The new vessels do not have the additional third deck of the old C-class ferries, with the space incorporated into the passenger lounges. They are intended to last as long as the C-class vessels they replace.
