Environmental friendliness and energy efficiency by increasing the size of the ships

Environmental friendliness and energy efficiency have also been achieved by increasing the size of the ships. More cargo can then be carried on a single voyage. In comparison with Finnlines’ existing fleet, the transport capacity of these new vessels is almost 40 per cent higher.

The best place to get a picture of the dimensions of Finneco II is the cargo hold. At the beginning of March, it is empty due to the stevedoring strike at Finnish ports. Finneco II and its sister ships each measure 238 metres long with a beam of 34 metres. Each vessel has 5,800 lane metres, meaning it can carry approximately 400 trailers per voyage.
