Wärtsilä will supply the engines, the navigation system, and a broad scope of other products and systems for the environmentally friendly cruise ferry being built for Viking Line. The ship is being built at the Xiamen Shipbuilding Industry yard in China and there is an option for a second vessel.
Commencing in early 2021, the new vessel will operate between Turku and Stockholm. The ship is the first LNG fuelled ferry of this size and standard to be built in China.
Wärtsilä will supply waterjets for the new high-speed Incat ferry being built for Naviera Armas.
This 109 metre long wave-piercing vessel will be the third Incat to join the Naviera Armas fleet. All three ships incorporate Wärtsilä waterjets. The new high-speed ferry will commence operations in 2019.
