The Scillonian will be sailed extended day-trips on Wednesdays. It will depart Penzance at 0800 an hour and fifteeen minutes earlier to encourage more day trippers midweek. This is the first time an earlier departure time has been planned on a normal sailing day. The corporate special sailings with Trading Pages and Pirate FM earlier this season were used as a test for early sailing times. The take up on these days proved that additional time to spend in the Islands is just what day trippers want. If the early sailings in August are busy this will encourage us to offer more flexibility during 2004.
