I see that the vessel is on sea-trials right now. She should return to La Valetta soon!

The MOBY KISS/ GALAXY is a case of recycling from a practically nearly scrapped vessel to a rebirth to a working one, so Jon ,Moby must have made their homework and resurrected a dead ship instead of building a new one. regards

Great photo. Moby do a very good job of maintaining and upgrading very old passenger car ferries, it seems to suit them.
