A large catamaran that held the title of the world’s fastest ferry for 13 years has become the latest acquisition trophy of rapidly expanding Greek operator Seajets.

The deal for the 6,400-gt Villum Clausen (built 2000) took place in December after the ship’s previous owner Danske Faerger (Danish Ferries) lost a state-subsidised ferry contract to service the island of Bornholm.
