And here they are in the flesh so to speak

Some fantastic photos by @Gary Davies of Barfleur sporting her new colours:

Very unusual sight to have the economie fleet (Kerry excluded) all at anchor in the Solent this morning!

A new update has been publisher over on ‘Destination Honfleur’ detailing the artwork that will be displayed onboard. Also revealed are the names of the onboard facilities: Giverny Restaurant, The Market Restaurant (self service) The Bar de la Baie The Loft Lounge (for teenagers) Premium Lounge (as onboard Barfleur) https://www.destinationhonfleur.com/en/news/gallery-sea

She’s now in Poole where repairs will be conducted. Arrow is bound for Portsmouth from Larne.

Kerry has reportedly caused a minor spillage into Santander harbour, which has already been cleared. https://m.eldiario.es/cantabria/ultima-hora/Brittany-Ferries-Santander-Irlanda-Bahia_0_979202339.html

And she’s off...! Merry Christmas once again everyone.

She’ll be headed back in to port once the Pont-Aven has departed.

An extra sailing to help people get back to Span before Christmas - which technically replaced the cancelled Cap Finistere sailing.

As well as being close to the bar (though they are behind glass doors so no issue with noise) they guarantee you a full sea view which isn’t always the case on the promenade deck - and you don’t have car alarms going off beneath you! 😒

Oops, the peril of copy & paste. 🙄 She will indeed be in Poole for Boxing Day evening to receive bunkers.

Whoooppppssss!

Quite where 2019 has gone is beyond me, but here we are just two more sleeps before Christmas Dat! It's certainly been an interesting year in the world of BF with both highs and lows, but 2020 looks set to be a cracker with the arrival of both the Honfleur and Galica to keep us all busy! As always a massive thank you to all of our members for your support and contribution over the last year. Without you BFE wouldn't exist, and for that I am truly grateful. A huge shout out also goes to @Jim @Millsy @Gareth and @AdamW who as ever do an amazing job in keeping everything ticking over. A final thank you goes to the team at BF Towers for their continued support. May I take this opportunity to wish you and your families a very Ferry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year!

It’s a great video - and ahead of its time , long before Discovery Channel and Mighty Ships! Had mine converted to dvd.

Looks like the Spanish feel of the e-flexors is being trialled: Tomorrow’s cuisine today Over the coming months, we invite you to embark with us for some Spanish style festivities during your cruise onboard Pont-Aven. Brittany Ferries has joined forces with one of the finest Spanish chefs to bring you new culinary specialities straight out of Spain. Carlos Zamöra will give your a taster of Hispanic delicacies, with an exclusive menu including tapas, olive assortments, Iberian charcuterie platters and more. And because your opinion matters greatly to us, we hope that after tasting these new dishes you will tell us what you think. Ready? ¡Buen povecho!
