Mignonette Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Hi,Does anyone know what's happening about Euroferries? I've seen stuff in the press about them possibly starting up this spring/ summer with channel crossings? It all seems to have gone very quiet......Miggy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Which ferry crossing(s) with this boat do? We need some competition on the Portsmouth-Caen route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will Posted July 4, 2006 Share Posted July 4, 2006 It is, in effect, taking over the old Hoverspeed Dover-Calais service, but with only one ferry. It was due to start this Spring, but as Yorks says, work on the ferry is only just finished, and more work is needed before it can start service in Europe. The company is still hopeful that it might begin this year, but it is not likely to happen for another couple of months at least.LD Lines, Portsmouth-Le Havre, offers competition on the Western Channel.
