Turkey’s Tersan Shipyard looks set to complete the two Norwegian coastal cruise ferries that Havila Kystruten have faced delays at Spanish shipbuilder Astilleros Hijos de J Barreras.

Havila Kystruten chairman Per Saevik told Norwegian news media this week that a deal that will see the partially completed hulls of the 15,500-gt cruise ferries Havila Pollux and Havila Polaris towed to Turkey and completed by Tersan is close to finalisation.
