From their website FAQs;
We are delighted to carry motorbikes on all of our ships and routes and we have some very competitive fares in place. Motorbikes, like all other vehicles, are carried subject to our conditions of travel.
It is Irish Ferries policy that motorbikes are secured on board all the time.
On our cruise vessels - Mv Ulysses, Mv Blue Star 1 and Mv Epsilon, bike owners will be supplied with adequate securing equipment on the car deck to secure their own bikes and crew members will assist where required. Before the ship departs crew members will routinely check all motorbikes to ensure that they are lashed in a safe and secure manner to prevent any damage to other vehicles or to the ship and will adjust the securing equipment if necessary.
Because of the high speed nature of the HSC Dublin Swift, members of our deck crew will secure the motorbikes on board this vessel.
Please note that the securing equipment is the property of Irish Ferries and must remain on board after use. However motorbike owners may bring their own securing equipment if they prefer. If you need help please seek the assistance of the Loading Officer on the car deck prior to the ships departure.
How much more expensive, Ferries suck ;)
