23.01.2022 Important: A friendly reminder to our regular passengers, that the Channel is experiencing gale force winds - currently gusting to 60 knots sustained at 40 knots Roberts Point. Our services are temporarily on hold until vessels can safely berth. We will provide regular updates as conditions change and we are doing everything possible to get people to where they need to be. The highest wind gust was recorded at Dennes Point this morning by the Bureau of Meteorology. Please be assured that the safety of those on board, the safe care of the vessel and those waiting is our highest priority. Kind regards, the SeaLink team

22.01.2022 Ferry Service Update: Hi Folks, we have an improved weather window and we will be shuttling (moving as many vehicles and passengers safely) during this window. The period of operation cannot be guaranteed as there is a returning spike of extreme weather around 4pm this afternoon, which may see a further delay to services. However, we will operate when conditions allow. If necessary and weather permitting we will run later than scheduled services to accommodate any volume of traffic already checked in at both terminals. As always our priority is the safety of our passengers, crew and vessels. Thank you for your patience. Kind regards, the SeaLink team
