Euroferries delays start-up of Ramsgate-Boulogne service again!

The ‘will they won’t they’ saga of the start-up of new UK fast ferry operator Euroferries Ramsgate (UK)-Boulogne (France) continues with the operator delaying once again.  Euroferries was to have begun operations with Fred Olsen’s wave-piercing catamaran Bonanza Express on 14 November, but for the third time this year has had to cancel the service. 

In another of the company’s bland statements it says: ‘Euroferries has regrettably had to delay its high speed cross-channel service launch scheduled for 14^th November due to hampered final stage operations. Euroferries apologies for any inconvenience caused to its customers and assures them that it is their foremost intention to resolve this matter swiftly allowing the service to commence.

‘All Euroferries bookings affected by this matter have the option of either receiving a full refund or alternatively receiving first class upgrades for an alternative date of travel.’

‘Off Radar’ understands that the vessel to be used on the new service, Bonanza Express, remains in the Canary Islands.
