Wightlink passengers are facing delays of up to two hours, after an Isle of Wight ferry was withdrawn, due to a mechanical issue.

UPDATE: Wightlink has confirmed damage to St Faith.

The St Faith is out of service today (Monday), the operator said.

The Portsmouth to Fishbourne route is significantly delayed.

Capactiy is already reduced because larger flagship, Victoria of Wight, is out of service for a refit, until the middle of next month.

The St Clare returned last week.
