MV St Faith

MV St Faith is a vehicle and passenger ferry operated by Wightlink on its route from Portsmouth to Fishbourne on the Isle of Wight.

On arrival in Portsmouth on 28 May 2010, St Faith collided heavily with the dock, injuring two passengers and causing minor damage.

[3][4] On 28 February 2015 the St Faith suffered an engine failure in the middle of the Solent around 20 minutes into the 8 am crossing to the Isle of Wight.

The captain decided to return to Portsmouth, and tug SD Bountiful towed the ferry back to the Gunwharf Quays terminal.

[citation needed] On 19 January 2017 a fire broke out in a cigarette bin on the port side bridge wing of the ferry whilst mid-Solent.
