Irish Ferries launches new ferry on Dublin-Holyhead route
Irish Ferries’ new high-speed craft Dublin Swift has entered service on the route between Dublin, Ireland and Holyhead, Wales, following a full internal refurbishment. Built by Australian-based shipbuilder Austal Ships, Dublin Swift is a twin-hulled catamaran that replaces Jonathan Swift, which has been in service since 1999. Dublin Swift is now the largest fast ferry on the Irish Sea and will operate at a speed of 35 knots.
MSC extends charter for catamaran WestPac Express
United States Military Sealift Command (MSC) exercises first of its three, six months options, for the ongoing charter of “WestPac Express”. The option forms part of a 24 month contract that Austal was awarded in December 2011. The 101 metre aluminium catamaran, “WestPac Express” has now been supporting the US Marine Corps in Okinawa, Japan since July 2001 and has achieved virtually 100 per cent availability over that time. The Austal-managed charter operation includes in-service support, ship management services and integrated logistics support.
