In this work, the author describes the passenger ferry routes across the Irish Sea and the ships that operated them from the end of World War I right up to the roll-on, roll-off ferries of more recent years. The author was a regular traveller on these routes and writes with first-hand knowledge of his subject. He evokes a more leisurely age when passenger tavel to and from the ships was usually by train rather than by car.

In 1973, a newcomer to the Irish ferry scene began sailings between Rosslare and Le Havre with the brand new state-of-the-art car ferry Saint Patrick. A subsidiary of deep sea company Irish Shipping, Irish Continental Line would grow from a single ship operator to become Irish Ferries; the leading ferry operator to and from the Republic of Ireland. In recent years, the company has invested over 450 million in new fleet and port facilities. The Line's progress so very nearly came to a premature end when in 1984 Irish Shipping went into liquidation. The ferry operation was viewed by the liquidator as a viable concern and was therefore offered for sale. Amongst interested parties was the state-owned B+I Line, but the company was eventually purchased in a buyout by its management as the Irish Continental Group. To operate their acquisition a new company was formed; Irish Ferries plc. In a remarkable twist of fate, Irish Continental Group went on to purchase B&I Line from the Irish government in 1992. Known to the Irish simply as The B&I, the rival to the British-operated Sealink had its operations steeped in history, linking right back to 1823 and the City of Dublin Steam Packet Company. It is against this backdrop that Irish Ferries continues to thrive, linking Ireland with Britain and mainland Europe. Its success as Ireland's Best Ferry Company is a clear reflection of the high level of service passengers have come to expect.

This report examines the proposed acquisition by Stena of certain assets operated by P&O on two routes between Britain and Ireland. Given the small impact of the proposed merger on the tourist market, the report focuses on the freight market. It finds that there is likely to be a substantial lessening of competition on the central corridor route, in relation to P&O's Liverpool-Dublin route, and possible remedies are considered. These are: prohibiting the transfer of P&O's Liverpool-Dublin route to Stena; facilitating access to berths at Dublin port or more generally on the central corridor; or an enhanced package of behavioural remedies suggested by Stena. The Commission concludes the most effective remedy is the prohibition of the transfer of the assets used on the Liverpool-Dublin route from P&O to Stena. Given that this would prevent the expected loss of competition, no action is recommended to be taken by others.

This new book, beautifully illustrated with a magnificent collection of over 300 photographs, covers the development of a much-loved type of vessel, the 'classic' cross channel or short sea passenger ferry often described as a liner in miniature. From the mid–19th century paddle ferries slowly evolved into screw-driven steamers but it was the advent of the steam turbine and the construction of the railway steamers The Queen and Brighton in 1903 that caught the attention of the world. Similarly-propelled ships multiplied and their use soon spread to the Antipodes, Japan, the Mediterranean and North America. In 1912 Rudolf Diesel's new oil engine went to sea in a cargo ship but it was not until 1925 that it was first employed to widespread acclaim in the Danish North Sea packet Parkeston. In 1934 it made its debut on the English Channel with the Belgian Government's striking 25-knot motor ferry Prins Baudouin. The inexorable increase in car travel from the 1930s led to the development of a new breed of specialised car ferry accessed through bow and stern doors and the proliferation of these after WW2 led to the eventual demise of the 'classic' passenger ferry in the 1960s.With its informative introductory texts and abundant photographs and detailed captions, this book will appeal to ship enthusiasts around the world and to all those who mourn the passing of the golden age of the passenger ship.

Excerpt: The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company (Manx: ) is the oldest continuously operating passenger shipping company in the world, celebrating its 180th anniversary in 2010. The company provides freight, passenger and vehicle services between the Isle of Man Sea Terminal, in Douglas, Isle of Man and five ports in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The Steam Packet Company was part of Macquarie Bank, an Australian investment bank, until April 2011 when it was annouced that The Steam Packet Company had new owners Banco Espirito Santo The Steam Packet Company is required to fulfil the terms of a User Agreement negotiated with the IOM Government's Department of Transport. Under the 2004 extension of the Agreement, the following minimum service levels are required: At present the Company's published schedule exceeds all of the above requirements, hence gaining the sole user rights to the government linkspan in Douglas Harbour, and thus, a monopoly on sea passenger transport to and from the Isle of Man. As of June 2009 the company is under investigation by a Select Committee of Tynwald, the Isle of Man's parliament. One of the concerns of Tynwald is the annual published profit margins by the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company, which according to Hansard, are 36% - almost three times the industry standard for ferry companies throughout the world. Mona's Queen (4) in 1961 There had been various shipping companies serving the Isle of Man before the formation of this company in 1830, but such crossings were irregular and vessels used were unreliable. As a result the Island could be cut off...
