A public announcement by the local Coast Guard in Livorno has revealed that the 1982-built RoPax ferry MOBY ZAZA has been sold to a Marshall Islands-based company, Atlantis Maritime SA.
The sale price remains undisclosed, as does the vessel’s future deployment. It is also possible that the ship may be heading for demolition in Turkey.
MOBY ZAZA joined the Onorato-controlled fleet in 2015 and has since operated on routes connecting Italy with various Mediterranean islands.
Built by the German shipyard AG Weser Seebeck Werft, the vessel is 153 metres long, 24 metres wide, has a gross tonnage of 22,000 GT, and can carry over 1,500 passengers and approximately 500 cars.
