The Floating Bridge crossing in East Cowes this morning (Wednesday).
The Cowes-East Cowes chain ferry went off yesterday (Tuesday) and remains off this morning.
**UPDATE**: Floating bridge back in service following latest setback
The replacement Jenny Lee boat is running.
It had been in action for around three weeks since it was last brought back into service after a breakdown.
It last returned to service on December 4, after a hydraulic oil leak.
Last night, a picture shared by East Cowes Councillor Karl Love appeared to show a problem with its prow.
