The LNG-powered RoPax ferry, MyStar, built by Finland’s Rauma Marine Constructions (RMC), has been delivered to Tallink Grupp. The Estonian cruise ferry and RoPax operator has commissioned the 2800-passenger ice-class 1A vessel following recent sea trials.

After a delivery voyage from Rauma to the Old City Harbour in the Port of Tallinn, MyStar is due to undertake its first commercial voyage from Tallinn to Helsinki.

The 212.4m-long ship, with rolling cargo capacity of 3,190 lane metres, has twelve decks, a main engine power of 42,000kW and a gross tonnage of 50,625. MyStar, the largest RoPax ship ever to be built by RMC, has a service speed of 27 knots.

Paavo Nõgene, Tallink Grupp CEO, said: “We are very pleased that this week we can welcome and receive into our fleet its newest member and the brightest star on the Baltic Sea, MyStar. Her much-awaited arrival marks the beginning of yet another new era for the Tallinn-Helsinki route, with customer service standards now even higher, passenger comfort even greater, and sustainability even more at the heart of our operations.”

RMC’s Mika Heiskanen, CEO, commented: “I want to thank Tallink for their excellent cooperation which has allowed us to bring the project to completion together despite challenging circumstances. I would also like to thank the partners and the classification society.”
