Last week Attica group announced that they have purchased two ro/pax from Grandi Navi Veloci, Genoa. Both ships are actually two modified sisterships of the Corragio/Audaci/Tenacia as they will carry 950 passengers instead of 500, this way the general appearence is going to be slightly different.
The fomer is supposed to be delivered in november 2008, in other words, it's the FORZA which was initially bound to GNV's fleet, and the second one will be delivered in june 2009, between them, DFDS will acquire the hull 1241.
These new ships are going to be used by BLUE STAR FERRIES, most likely on Patras-Igoumenitsa-Ancona line, on account of the fact, superfast ferries wants to sell the SUPERFAST XI and XII and moved the two others on Bari line.
Meanwhile, it was also reported Blue Star 1 will stop her operations between Rosyth and Zebrugge on september 18, then she will head to Greece. But in my opinion her future seem uncertain, especially as BSF needn't such a large ship on its routes...
