A few months after CORSICA EXPRESS THREE was sold by Corsica Ferries to BluNavy (BN di Navigazione), the fast ferry has changed hands again. Sources familiar with the matter told Ferry Shipping News that the vessel has been acquired by the Cyprus-based company Pikessea Shipping Ltd.
The sale price has not been disclosed, but BluNavy reportedly purchased the vessel for about EUR 3 million earlier this year from Corsica Ferries.
Built in 1996 by Rodriquez Shipyard, the mono-hull fast ferry measures 103 metres in length, 15 metres in width, and reaches a speed of 37 knots. She can accommodate more than 500 passengers and 150 cars, and was recently operating on the Piombino–Portoferraio and Piombino–Bastia routes in Italy.
