Post by: Phil on 11 March 2014, 15:15:58: I've actually been on that ferry a couple of times when it was doing the Ramsgate Oostende route.

Unfortunately TransEuropa went bust early last year so the ships went, kind of killing Oostende as well as they are just about finished on a massive redevelopment of the port and harbour entrance.

Guess the other 3 ships they used to use have/ are going to end up in the same state
