would have been interesting to see this ship sail in Sweden. It's quite rare for ex-Japanese ferries to end up in Northern Europe.

Gotlandsbåten AB, Visby is a new company.
See http://www.gotlandsbaten.se/sv/mv-vastervik
But it seems from the website that the company is having difficulties with completing the refit and is having to refund customers. They initially deferred their start date until 3/7, but now announce that work at Drapetzona has stopped and Swedish personnel flown home.
