The Interislander ferry is back on schedule today after a once-in-four-decades occurrence saw the Kaitaki delayed more than eight hours due to high winds.
Tuesday s service departed Wellington at 9am and was due to arrive in Picton at 12.30pm - but was only able to finally berth at 9pm.
Passengers on the smaller Bluebridge ferry were in for an even longer haul, with their ferry having departed the capital at 8am.
Interislander general manager Walter Rushbrook said the afternoon had been a one-off event.
