Long serving ferry sold for undisclosed sum

The Shipping line Tallink has sold the 'Sea Wind' for an undisclosed sum. Tallink Group CEO Paavo Nõgene said: "We are of course sad to see our grand old lady the Sea Wind, who is 50 years old this year, depart from our fleet, but we are pleased that she has a new life ahead of her and that she will continue sailing on other seas with the new owners. I would like to thank the crew for taking such good care of her over the many years, ensuring she has many years of sailing still ahead of her. "We will now rearrange our cargo vessel operations to ensure we continue to offer the same level of capacity or as close to the same level of capacity as possible both on the routes between Estonia and Finland, and Estonia and Sweden." The 'Sea Wind' had been operating on the Muuga-Vuosaari route but will discontinue operations on the Baltic Sea following the sale. The Tallink Grupp has reorganized its cargo operations on the Muuga-Vuosaari and Paldiski-Kapellskär routes, with effect from April 19. The 'Regal Star' will replace the 'Sea Wind' on the Muuga-Vuosaari route, while the 'Sailor' will continue to operate on the Paldiski-Kapellskär route on extra departures. The new owners of the Sea Wind took over the 'Seawind' in Tallinn on April 26, where she had been berthed since its return from Muuga on April 19.
