Condor Ferries' Liberation fast ferry is up for sale.

The ship is being advertised on a broker's website, with the price 'available on request'.

Condor Ferries bought it in 2015 for £50 million and it was named by the public, to mark the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Channel Islands from German occupation during WWII.

The firm's boss Christophe Mathieu told us in December that the vessel, along with the Goodwill freight ship, would likely be sold if Condor lost the Jersey contract.

DFDS will take over as Jersey's operator on 28 March, while Condor - majority-owned by Brittany Ferries - will continue to serve Guernsey.

When Brittany Ferries published its 2025 timetable in November, the States said Guernsey would be served by three vessels:

• Voyager will provide high speed ferry services between St Malo, Guernsey and Poole
• Islander will provide Ro-Pax and lifeline freights services between Portsmouth, Guernsey and St Malo
• Clipper will provide resilience and operate back-up services as and when required on all routes
