Ship profiles 2: Amalie

Before I get to it, I'd like to dedicate a small friendly rant to my friend Tõnis for suggesting a ship with hardly any information available. But I did it :P


Name: MF Amalie
IMO number: 6519132
Built: 1965
Lenght: 24m
Beam: 4,5m
Draught: 2,25m
Tonnage: 110 GT

Type: Ro-ro cargo/passenger ship
Speed: 10,5 kmots
Decks: 1

Capacity: 100 passengers; 10 cars
Home: Kihnu, Estonia
Status: Laid up, waiting for season.

It is known that she was built in Norway in 1965 and used to be named Ottersøy 4 and Radøy.
In 2004, she was bought by the Estonian company Kihnu Veeteed to be used for traffic between small Estonian islands. In late April, she is planned to enter the Kihnu - Munalaid route for the summer.
