On 4 August 2025, the A-Ships Management ferry GALAXY left Perama for the Faroe Islands. She has been chartered to Strandfaraskip Landsins for a 10-week period starting on 30 August 2025. Arrival is expected on 17 August.
The ship will temporarily replace SMYRIL on the Tórshavn–Tvøroyri route. GALAXY was also chartered by the same company in 2017 for a shorter period.
Built in Poland in 1979, she can carry 900 passengers (limited to 350 during the charter) and 520 lane metres. Service speed is 19 knots.
