If you were thinking about heading to Passage East to hop on the car ferry, you might want to make alternative arrangements...
A 'Sailing Update' was announced on Facebook late yesterday evening.
The Passage East Ferry Company ferry service usually operates a regular and daily passage across the River Suir linking the small villages of Passage East and Ballyhack. This popular route is favoured by locals for a 'short cut' from Wexford to Waterford and vice-versa, but also well-known by tourists heading to visit Hook Head Lighthouse.
In the Facebook statement, the company announced that due to a breakdown, the ferry will not be sailing this weekend; from Friday 6th August through to Wednesday 11th August.
The Passage East Ferry Company are '
hopeful to be back on (the river) Thursday August 12th'.
Not the best news for anyone spending the weekend down in the sunny South-East, you may want to add a little extra time to your journey and get Siri to re-route!
