Roof box height ferry.
I have just purchased a roof box to go on my volvo and now i am not sure if it will fit on the ferry.
The height limit on the brittany ferry is 1 83m or you end up going into the 2 6m bracket which is very high and would mean we could not take the fast cat.
Please make sure that you specify the correct dimensions of your vehicle using the dropdown fields when making your booking.
I think most ferry companies take height to be from ground to the top of your car including roof box.
I think we are about 5 10cm too high.
As a rule us chaps don t read instructions and to be fair most of us get away with it 95 of the time.
A top box or bicycles on arrival our loading staff may ask to measure your vehicle if your booking has been made incorrectly or you do not consent to a check we will not be able to honour your booking and you will be asked to change your ticket and pay any difference in.
Supplements apply to cars mpv s 4x4 s over 5m long and 1 83m high and motorhomes mini buses and vans over 5m long and 2 6m high.
The vehicles size is the true maximum length and height including any tow bars overhanging items and roof loads e g.
Anyone out there got any experiences.
When booking it is essential that you declare the correct height of your vehicle including any roof load as vehicles over 1 85m in height cannot fit in all areas of our vessels vehicle decks.
As a general rule i would take the height of an mpv people carrier as close to the height limit.
Anything higher then you will be put in with the lorries and have to pay extra.
We just returned on friday and when we booked it was without a roof box and we then bought one which nudged the height just over the 6ft mark by an inch or so.
This figure will should be on the ferries website.
