Currently undergoing repairs at the yard are P&O Ferries Pride of Bilbao, which operates between Portsmouth (UK) and Bilbao (Northern Spain), and Irish Ferries 1999-built Austal Auto Express 86 fast ferry Jonathan Swift. The latter is also having bow damage repairs undertaken by fast ferry repair specialists Burgess Marine. Jonathan Swift operates for Irish Ferries on the company’s Holyhead-Dublin route.

Further ferry drydockings this winter include Condor Ferries Commodore Clipper, which operates between Portsmouth and the Channel Islands, and Stena’s Irish Sea fast ferry Stena Lynx Sphere: Related Content
