Island Sky

With a strong south westerly wind blowing early this Friday morning, as most of Guernsey was thinking about getting out of bed, the St Peter Port pilots brought the Island Sky into No 1 berth for a short half day visit. In the foreground is the St Peter Port lifeboat, the Spirit of Guernsey, a Severn class lifeboat.

The Island Sky, with a capacity for only 114 guests, is one of the smaller liners to visit Guernsey. It has the advantage of coming into port when the weather may have stopped larger liners' tender transfers. Built in 1992 and refitted in 2003 she provides a unique experience.
