Summary

Description

MS Silja Symphony is a cruiseferry owned by the Estonian shipping company Tallink Group, operated under their Silja Line brand on a route connecting Helsinki, Finland to Stockholm, Sweden via Mariehamn. She was built in 1991 at Masa-Yards Turku New Shipyard, Finland.

Type:Cruiseferry Tonnage:58,377 GT Length:203 m (666 ft 0 in) Beam:31.5 m (103 ft 4 in) Draught:7.1 m (23 ft 4 in) Ice class:1 A Super Propulsion:4 × Wärtsilä-Vasa 9R46 diesel engines, 32,500 kW (43,583 hp) Speed:23 knots (43 km/h; 26 mph) Capacity:2,626 passengers (originally), 2,852 (currently) 986 cabins, 450 vehicles (950 lane meters)

On 7 February 1996, the ship was grounded in the Stockholm archipelago. In December of the same year her engines were upgraded with so-called water-spray technology that greatly reduced nitrogen oxide emissions. In order to keep tax free sales on the Helsinki–Stockholm ships when the EU changed its tax free legislation, a stop at Mariehamn was added to the route in June 1999 [Wikipedia.org]
