Der var i dag (13/2) køllægning på Wasalines nye færge AURORA BOTNIA, som bliver bygget på det finske værft Rauma Marine Constructions. Den første blok havde en vægt på ca. 210 tons.
Færgen som har byggenummeret NB6002, skal efter planen søsættes i efteråret, for endelig at blive leveret i foråret 2021.
“RMC wants to be a forerunner in producing holistic solutions with cutting-edge technology. The Clean Design class notation is one example of this. Moreover, we have partnered with Aalto University and agreed on joint research and development efforts.”
Jyrki Heinimaa, Direktør i Rauma Marine Constructions.
“I’m very proud that we have reached this milestone. Laying the keel is an event that we have been looking forward to for some time. Now, we can see years of planning become a reality. This vessel is the most environmentally friendly large RoPax ferry in the world, its degree of domestic origin is more than 80%, and it employs the most cutting-edge, environmentally friendly technology.”
Peter Ståhlberg, Administrerende direktør i Wasaline.
