RoPax ferry successfully launched

Built for Caledonian Maritime Assets Limited (CMAL), the 116m-long vessel has a capacity for 700 passengers and 143 cars or 20 lorries. Upon its delivery, it will link the mainland of northwestern Scotland with the Isle of Lewis in the Hebrides on the Stornoway-Ullapool route.
Because of its high-value, modern design and construction, the ferry is suitable for 24-hour operation and will replace two older vessels, FSG said.
