Ferry suffered engine damage
Bookings have been suspended to Whalsay’s ferry service after the 'Hendra' suffered a damage to its main engine on May 9, 2024. The service was thus running to the 'Linga’s timetable on a first come, first serve basis. The damage has been identified on a piston on the starboard main engine. Those who needed to get to a medical appointment were urged to let the crew know so that they could be prioritised.
