Red Funnel clients like to surf before they sail

Red Funnel has claimed its Internet site is getting so popular that it has recorded a 500% increase in the amount of time people spend using it during the last year. The Southampton to Cowes operator now offers its newsletter, News Online, on the site and has added the summer timetable. Pictured surfing are, from left, Red Funnel business development manager Jonathon Green and the company's Isle of Wight holidays manager Suzanne Woodford.
