NB1093 Loch Indaal will operate in the busiest service route on the Clyde and Hebrides network, the 95-meter vessel will have a capacity of 275 lane meters for HGVs on the main deck and a total of 107 cars on both main and hoistable decks. It is expected to increase 40% of the freight and vehicle capacity on the Islay and Jura routes while reducing substantially the carbon footprint thanks to its diesel/hybrid propulsion system with new building ferries. The conceptual design of the Islay Ropax Ferries was developed by naValue together with close cooperation with the Owner’s design team for the tender process.
For the design and development of the vessels, Cemre has continued cooperation with LMG Marin AS as a successful partner, which is an experienced design company for advanced vessels.
