Detroit World Logistic Maritime (DWLM) expect to have their veteran ferry LE RIF ready in April. The ship is being refurbished in Naples since a long time. Some websites already reported the company had abandoned her, something which was proven wrong by issuing a message on DWLM’s social media. “She will be ready to sail between Tanger Med and Algeciras by April.”
The ro-pax ferries AMSICORA and BONARIA, previously chartered by Tirrenia and returned to their owner Grimaldi have been renamed into MYKONOS PALACE and CRUISE BONARIA respectively.
CLdN’s second mega- 7,800 lane meter ro-ro is on her delivery voyage, and is expected in Rotterdam/Zeebrugge mid February.
Trasmediterránea has moved the SUPERFAST LEVANTE and ALMUDAINA DOS from the Cypriot flag back again to the Spanish registry, with fully Spanish crew. Other ships may follow.
After a lay-up period, ro-pax AL ANDALUS EXPRESS (former SEAFRANCE NORD PAS-DE-CALAIS) will again be used by FRS until 7 March. The ship is still for sale.
Trasmediterranéa’s ferry ALMARIYA is back in service again, after months of repair work.
