Apr\u00e8s l’arriv\u00e9e des premiers ferries sur la Manche-Ouest dans les ann\u00e9es 1970, les ann\u00e9es 1980 sont marqu\u00e9es par l’expansion des services. 10 ans apr\u00e8s sa cr\u00e9ation, Brittany Ferries consolide ses positions en Bretagne et investit progressivement la Normandie. \u00c0 l’inverse, Condor Ferries consolide ses positions sur les \u00eeles Anglo-normandes, pr\u00e9lude \u00e0 son expansion de la d\u00e9cennie suivante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Les ann\u00e9es 1980 : l’expansion \u00e0 grande vitesse de Brittany Ferries<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

10 apr\u00e8s sa cr\u00e9ation, le pari Brittany Ferries<\/a><\/strong> est un succ\u00e8s \u00e9conomique. La flotte de la compagnie bretonne compte d\u00e9sormais quatre navires, qui peine \u00e0 r\u00e9pondre \u00e0 la demande croissante des touristes, essentiellement britanniques. D\u00e8s 1980, la compagnie double ses fr\u00e9quences entre Saint-Malo – Portsmouth gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 l’affr\u00e8tement du M\/V Go\u00eblo<\/a><\/strong>. Apr\u00e8s l’affr\u00e8tement avort\u00e9 du M\/V Tr\u00e9gor<\/strong> en 1981, Brittany Ferries<\/strong> se dote en 1982 d’un nouveau navire amiral pour les lignes Santander (Espagne) – Plymouth (Angleterre) et Roscoff (France) – Cork (Irlande), avec l’entr\u00e9e en flotte du M\/V Quiberon<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mais les ann\u00e9es 1980 sont surtout marqu\u00e9es par l’implantation de la compagnie bretonne en Normandie. 1986 est ainsi marqu\u00e9e par l’acquisition de Truckline<\/strong>, qui op\u00e8re deux rouliers entre Cherbourg (France) et Poole (Angleterre), et la cr\u00e9ation de la ligne Ouistreham (France) – Portsmouth (Angleterre). Bien que cette derni\u00e8re soit en concurrence directe avec les services de P&O<\/strong> appareillant de Cherbourg et du Havre, Brittany Ferries<\/strong> parvient \u00e0 prendre en quelques ann\u00e9es \u00e0 s’imposer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Channel Island Ferries : lorsque l’outsider acquiert un monopole<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Au d\u00e9but des ann\u00e9es 1980, les liaisons entre l’Angleterre et les \u00celes Anglo-normandes sont le monopole de Sealink<\/strong>. Cependant, celui-ci est contest\u00e9 par Commodore<\/strong> d’une part, Channel Island Ferries<\/strong> d’autre part. Cette seconde compagnie, dont Brittany Ferries<\/a><\/strong> est l’un des actionnaires, op\u00e8re ses premiers services en 1985. Rapidement, la compagnie s’impose gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 un produit centr\u00e9 sur l’essentiel, \u00e0 l’oppos\u00e9 des prestations premium propos\u00e9es par Sealink<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tout au long des ann\u00e9es 1980, celle qui devient British Channel Island Ferries<\/strong> en 1986, cherche \u00e0 se doter d’une flotte adapt\u00e9e \u00e0 ses besoins. Elle affr\u00e8te ainsi de nombreux navires, dont beaucoup ont navigu\u00e9 avant pour Brittany Ferries<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consolider : les ann\u00e9es 1980 de Condor<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Apr\u00e8s la croissance rapide des ann\u00e9es 1970, Condor<\/strong> aborde les ann\u00e9es 1980 avec la consolidation pour mot d’ordre. En 1980, la compagnie exp\u00e9rimente un catamaran sur ses services Saint-Malo – \u00celes Anglo-normandes. Mais celui-ci se r\u00e9v\u00e8le peu adapt\u00e9, for\u00e7ant la compagnie \u00e0 r\u00e9investir dans un dernier hydropt\u00e8re.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En 1986, Condor<\/strong> fait n\u00e9anmoins le pari de rallier Weymouth (Angleterre) avec ses vedettes. La cr\u00e9ation de cette nouvelle liaison marque le pr\u00e9lude des ann\u00e9es 1990, au cours desquelles Condor<\/strong>, alli\u00e9e \u00e0 Commodore<\/strong>, s’accaparera le monopole de la desserte des \u00eeles Anglo-normandes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
