Has anyone got any recent experience of the Red Funnel Southampton - East Cowes ferry and potential grounding issues for my 7.4m Compass 196 coachbuilt?
Mine has a fair rear overhang and very flimsy plastic rear mouldings, so trying to establish if they will part company as I drive on in July...
I might add I don't have a towbar (yet) and will have got round to fitting my rear air suspension assist by then which has been sat on my garage floor for a while.
I've already ditched the ridiculous exhaust extension just behind the front wheels, that grounded the first time I went into my local Sainsbury's petrol station. It's the price you pay for a low chassis I suppose, at least we don't need a separate step into the habitation area.
Thanks guys & gals, looking forward to some trips off now we seem to be merging from incarceration!
