Is there another sister of the Stena Challenger (Holyhead-Dublin Port) and
TT Traveller (ex-Stena Traveller, which operated alongside the Stena
Normandy between Southampton-Cherbourg) ?
This Stena book says they were two of three...was the third built and if so
where is she in service today?

Thanks

In article <3731...@newsread3.dircon.co.uk>,

The third one operates for Fjord Line on a route from Denmark up the
Norwegian coast to Bergen (I believe). I think that she could be called the
BERGEN also. Of course this is the same company that now operate the
Newcastle-Norway services.

This ship is a bit different to the Challenger and Traveller and has an
extended passenger capacity. I suspect that she may have been purchesed by
Fjord Line before completion as she is different to the other two ships.

If I knew more I'd tell you! Perhaps you could look at www.ferryguide.nu as
that site covers a lot of Scandinavian ferries and look under Fjord Line.

Hope that helps!

I've just had a look at the above web page and there is a picture of the
Bergen.

Follow 'In English', 'Companies', Fjord Line', 'Bergen' and there it is!

There are to more nearly sister sailing for Turkish Maritime, the KAPTAN
ABIDIN DORAN and KAPTAN BURHANETTIN ISIM. Both are sailing mostly between
Istanbul and Italy.
