Great video, pity that the boat has spent much of the summer with mechanical problems. The phrase "running on one engine" should be Condor's motto, as it seems to spend most of its time doing this
Was OK when i came back from St Malo in mid September.
Left on- time. St Malo to Poole 4hours with a stop-off at Guersney. That's pretty damn good journey time.
Goes like a rocket. 42 knots - nearly as fast as the competition off-shore power boat racers. Certainly as fast as a german E-boat !!!!! . When its going full tilt the propeller wake is something to behold - worth going on the observation deck to see.
Accomodation, including Club class is great. Service great.
@NAROBS Wow - a satisfied Condor customer!! You should take a look at the comments of all the holidaymakers this summer who've had their trips delayed by the "engine problems". Accommodation great? Maybe, if you think that £115 for an overnight cabin (on top of the normal fare) is good value
@signature50 Who needs an overnight cabin with a 4 hour crossing ?
I paid slightly over a ton for a one way club class ticket. Club class in separate compartment, leather recliners, bar, stewardess service, newspapers etc etc.
Quite honestlly, the standard seats were fine.
Brittany or LD (who until recently was a low price provider) want 4 times and 3 times the price for similar or shorter journies.
great vid eurodestination :) i work on the both Condor Ferries and u got some great shots of the new addition well done:)) p.s the Rapide isnt as Rapide as the Vitesse:)
Fascinating vessel Gary, the use of variable speed clips and manual focusing, keeps the interest focused ('Scuse the pun )....Excellent work as always...Bob
@robmasterman Many thanks again Bob. Again I was lucky with the weather, but I was less lucky at an un-named pub in St Peter Port who gave me food poisoning, which manifested itself while I was driving back on the M3 at 3am!!!
Like a speed boat
