1987 Custom Ropax Night Ferry
About This Yacht
This 540-foot RoPax night ferry was built in 1987 and rebuilt in 1994 and 2005. Powered by four MAN diesel engines producing 8,952 horsepower, the yacht reaches a maximum speed of 21 knots and cruises at 19.5 knots. A steel hull with comprehensive thruster systems—including bow thrusters of 735 and 1,200 kilowatts and a 735-kilowatt stern thruster—provides excellent maneuverability. The vessel is classed DNV and flagged Italian.
The car deck accommodates 455 vehicles across 1,850 lane meters, with loading via one bow ramp and two stern ramps. A new ramp installation was completed in 2011. Passenger capacity reaches 1,320, with 949 berths distributed across 379 guest cabins. The yacht is fully air-conditioned throughout.
Guest spaces include an à la carte restaurant, pizzeria, self-serve restaurant, and snack bar, along with a children's room. The layout and facilities support extended overnight voyages with comfort and amenities for both vehicle operators and leisure passengers.
