There are ACCESS to cabins for drivers available on Stena Belfast/Cairnryan also bunks available in drivers lounge P&O Larne/Cairnryan.
Crossings are 2hrs/2hrs 15mins roughly and perfectly legal to use ferry mode on these crossings same as the 4hr crossing Dublin/HH etc.
No where does it mention in drivers hours regulations that there is a minimum length boat journey ref utilising “ferry mode”.
Plus the key words are “ACCESS to a bunk/Couchette” you don’t have to legally use same!!!
Was told one time a “couchette” refers to the fold-down beds on a train!!!
