It is reported that Golden Star Ferries’ HSC GOLDEN PRINCESS (ex-GOTLANDIA II) will likely be tested on the same route as her fleet mate HSC SUPEREXPRESS — Rafina–Tinos–Mykonos–Paros–Naxos–Santorini — in September.
The vessel is currently receiving her new livery at the Perama repair zone, where additional crew cabins are also being installed. She was purchased from Swedish operator Gotlandsbolaget AB in May 2023 and was built in Italy in 2006.
HSC GOLDEN PRINCESS has a capacity for 900 passengers and 160 cars, and will operate at a service speed of 32 knots.
