PRESS RELEASES / ANNOUNCEMENTS

A new route between Rostock, Germany and Uusikaupunki, Finland will be launched by Attica Group in mid-January, 2005, to be operated by the two newly-acquired ice-class Ro-Ro ferries, “M/V MARIN” and “M/V NORDIA”.

The key account for this service is Porsche’s supplier, Valmet Automotive located in the proximity of Uusikaupunki port in Finland.

The service will run 3 times a week from each port and will complement Superfast Ferries’ daily link between Rostock, Germany and Hanko, Finland’s southernmost port.
