The Aurora Botnia, the new ferry which from next year will cross the Bothnian Gulf between Holmsund (Sweden) and Vaasa (Finland) will be launched today at the shipyard in Rauma, Finland.
The event is being live-streamed at 13:00BST / 14:00CET / 15:00EET on Vimeo. You can watch live here: https://vimeo.com/452475147
The Aurora Botnia will replace the M/S Wasa Express, operated by Wasa Line since 2013. Launched in the early eighties, she previously served with Sally Line as the Sally Star and Color Line as the Color Traveller.
The Holmsund-Vaasa route is claimed to be the world's northernmost year-round RoPax service. The ferry is officially part of the E12 highway from Mo I Rana in Norway to Helsinki in Finland.
