In Southern Italy, a pair of 20-year-old HSC units are expected to soon leave Liberty Lines’ fleet in Sicily and join SNAV for future deployment in the Gulf of Naples.
ERACLIDE is likely to be operated by Caremar, while ANTIOCO should enter service on the maritime link provided by Laziomar between mainland Italy and the Ponza–Ventotene islands.

Built in 2005 in Italy by the Rodriquez yard, both ERACLIDE and ANTIOCO can sail at a speed of 37 knots, transporting up to 238 passengers.

This double sale is part of the renovation plan for Liberty Lines’ fleet, which has recently received several new, modern dual-fuel electric HSC units built by the Armon shipyard in Vigo, Spain.
