Virtu Ferries Limited, Malta, has purchased the 40m Flying Cat vessel m/v Flying Viking II.
22.03.07 -- The company has already a Fjellstrand vessel in their fleet of fast ferries.
According to Mr. Francis Portelli, it is not determined yet where the vessel will operate.
Due to heavy work load at Fjellstrand, most of the up-grading onboard will take place
outside Norway.
The vessel will have the Fjellstrand Motion Dampening System and Fjellstrand Interceptor installed. The Interceptor system has been installed onboard several vessels already.
The owners are reporting fuel savings of incredible 50 litres per operating hour.
Something to think of by other operators as well?
