MV FISHBOURNE
Post Card : entered service with her sister Camber Queen 1961 gross tons 293.I can remeber travelling on these and getting stuck in the fog for a couple of hours.When they were having problems with the passenger ferries Shanklin,Sandown and Brading they pressed one of these car ferries into service by parking I believe 3 single deck buses from Southern Vectis on the car deck as passenger accomodation was crap ( thats putting it mildly.Some wag changed the destination blind to 69 and Camp Hill (the local open prison)
