Italian Yard Maintains Ro-Pax Momentum

French ferry operator Corsica Linea is set to commission the latest ro-pax delivery from Cantiere Navale Visentini in northeast Italy. While a further derivative of the Visentini class widely used in European short-sea trades, the 206m A.Galeotta has been customised to the owner’s service between Marseilles and the Corsican ports of Ajaccio and Bastia. She also features LNG-fuelled propulsion.
