Both outbound and inbound (Portsmouth - Caen) on recent visit to Spain, van was checked by security. Neither officer looked under the fixed bed, although they opened all the other doors and lockers.
Passport checks on return took a full 30 minutes from leaving the boat, with some fairly irrelevant questions being asked.
No objection to increasing our security and controlling the borders, but this approach does seem to leave some fairly large loopholes.
