Baleària paves the way for operation of HYPATIA DE ALEJANDRÍA to Ciutadella through acquisition of tugboat ROLON PLATA II
Jul 16 2019
FerryBaleària has inaugurated its LNG-ro-pax HYPATIA DE ALEJANDRÍA on the Barcelona-Alcúdia-Ciutadella line, boosting connections not only between the Spanish peninsular and the Balearic Islands, but as much the Balearic inter-island connections. This move is a great step forward particularly for the island of Menorca, the archipelago's second-largest island with a population of about 90,000. HYPATIA DE ALEJANDRÍA is the largest ro-pax which ever called the Port of Ciutadella at Menorca's western tip, and her inauguration required specific preparation including the acquisition of a tugboat. In order to allow the HYPATIA DE ALEJANDRÍA operating to Ciutadella, Baleària therefore purchased the newbuilt tugboat ROLON PLATA II from Damen Shipyards Group at the end of June.
