Onboard

The new vessels will offer passengers great comfort in stylish, modern lounges, plus a place to relax and watch the sea go by on an extensive sundeck.  Click here to see artist's impressions of the interior.

The ships will be able to carry a greater and more varied traffic load than the current vessels, but they will be only a fraction larger in overall size.  At a little over 62 metres in length and 16 metres in width, they will have a capacity for 65 cars, compared with the 52 that the current "C class" ships are capable of carrying.
