The new ferry Salamanca is a sister ship to
Galicia, announced as the most modern ship of the French company. Chartered by Brittany Ferries from Sweden’s Stena RoRo, the ship was launched in January this year.
It will serve long-distance routes between Spain and the United Kingdom and will be a more efficient and ecological ship, as it will sail with LNG fuel, saving an estimated 46 per cent of CO2 per passenger.
