Tour the ferry

PEOPLE can tour the Hoverspeed Superseacat fast ferry tomorrow (Saturday) when it returns to Newhaven from its annual refit.

To mark the start of its new season on the cross-Channel route from March 22, Hoverspeed is staging an open day when visitors can meet the crew, view its facilities and even visit the bridge. There will also be on-board wine tasting and a prize draw to win a ticket to Dieppe.

This will be Hoverspeed's fourth season on the Newhaven-Dieppe route which is also served by two Transmanche freight and passenger ferries.

Tours of the Superseacat are from 10am-4pm. For information on crossings call 08705 240241 or logon to www.hoverspeed.com
