Condor Liberation damaged

The new ferry hit the side of the Guernsey's quay on the last weekend of March when docking in the island in high winds.

It took a week to repair the damage in Poole, the welding work took longer than expected after being held up by bad weather.

Condor Liberation is back in action

Condor Liberation

The Condor Liberation is expected to return to its normal schedule tomorrow.

Repairs to the engine have been completed earlier than expected.

The Liberation will be tested this afternoon at full speed on its journey to the UK this afternoon and following a successful voyage the boat will operate at full speed tomorrow.

We will monitor Liberation’s performance closely throughout the remainder of today's sailings and over the coming days to ensure that she is performing as well as we and our customers expect.

I would like to thank all of our passengers for their patience and understanding during this frustrating period.

– Captain Fran Collins, Executive Director – Operations at Condor Ferries
