Use the Sea Cat from Weymouth - takes about 4 - 4 1/2 hours IIRC. Did it a few years back when the sea was totally flat and was a fantastic experience, a bit like flying but on water.

It takes 2 hours from Weymouth, 2.5 hours from Poole to Guernsey, stops for 30 mins then another 50 mins or so to Jersey

just blag a better seat once everyone is seated, just walk up to the recliners & sit down like you paid for it.

drop your ipod on & close your eyes no one will bother you


I had to ride on deck on my journey to jersey as there was sod all leg space on our seats & nowwhere to put your bag.

But it is mega windy on deck.

return journey just did as stated , blagged a free leather recliner no probs.

cheap drink & fags too on the ferry

Done the catamaran a couple of times and it was like the journey from hell. Never again. People were chucking up all over the place and that's one thing I can't handle too well
