Pont Aven is the fastest and largest purpose-built cruise-ferry on the English Channel. Prior to being named, Pont-Aven was referred to as Bretagne 2; this was then the codename for the new Brittany Ferries vessel for the Plymouth–Roscoff route, the Armorique.
Brittany Ferries is the trading name of the French shipping company, BAI Bretagne Angleterre Irlande S.A. founded in 1973 by Alexis Gourvennec, that operates a fleet of ferries and cruiseferries between France and the United Kingdom, Ireland, and Spain, and between Spain and Ireland and the United Kingdom.
The vessel was designed and built specifically for the Plymouth-Roscoff route, as a replacement for the Pont L'Abbe. Her maiden voyage was due to be on 10 February 2009 at 15:00hrs, sailing from Roscoff to Plymouth. However, due to severe weather conditions, this crossing was cancelled, and she sailed to Plymouth without passengers.
Roscoff (/ ˈ r ɒ s k oʊ / ROSK-oh, French:; Breton: Rosko) is a commune in the Finistère département of Brittany in northwestern France. Roscoff is renowned for its picturesque architecture, labelled petite cité de caractère de Bretagne (small town of character) [ 3 ] since 2009.
After the rebuild was completed in June 1993, the ship entered service on Brittany Ferries' Plymouth–Santander route, as well as Plymouth–Roscoff and Cork–Roscoff. In 2004 the new MV Pont-Aven replaced the Val de Loire on her old routes, and she was transferred to serve on the Portsmouth–St Malo and Portsmouth–Cherbourg routes .
