We used Transeuropa earlier in the year, we were subjected to a security check before being loaded on to the ferry. Nobody however bothered about measuring the length of our van. I think that you should be o.k. When we travelled there were only 2 lorries 3 cars and our van on board, more staff than passengers, and space was not an issue.
Have a good trip

Right now I´m having amnesia and deja vu at the same time. I think I´ve forgotten this before.

Thanks for the info Brian it's made my mind up to book with them. Can you tell me if the return dates are fixed or can you ring and make an amendment without charge.
Many years ago the company was operated by "Oostende Lines" - using the same ships as are currently in operation. On two occasions I arrived at the port with a coach and 48 passengers and due to adverse weather was advised to travel to Dover, then transferred to what was a Sealink vessel.
It all adds to the excitement, plus i will enjoy the four hour nap after the 270 miles driver from Barnsley to Ramsgate!

Transeuropa don't charge an amendment fee
They won't worry about a 39cm overhang (they're looking for half metre plus & only measure where there is an obvious discrepancy between booked & actual length)
Two of the ships are ex RMT, one is ex Sally, two are ex P&O and one is ex Brittany ferries
I can't remember the last time Ramsgate closed as a port - certainly less often than some others. Also, the ships have different crews now so they same issues are unlikely to arise
