The two 47.5 metre high speed passenger catamarans, built for New World First Ferry (Macau), are scheduled to enter service in October to meet the growing tourism demand generated from the dramatic increase in Macau’s tourist arrivals since the development of its gaming and mega-resort industry.
Set to join five similar Austal passenger catamarans already in service in the New World First Ferry (NWFF) fleet, the latest ferries, named “New Ferry LXXXVII” and “New Ferry LXXXVIII” will operate at a service speed of 42 knots while carrying 418 passengers.
