Fredericia - MossRo/ro-service terminated after six sailings

The ro-ro-service between Fredericia, Denmark and Moss, Norway, did not last long. After only six sailings with hardly any cargo/trailers on board, it was decided to quit the service and return the ro-ro vessel Moondance to Seatruck Ferries.
“We have started with extreme bad timing”, says Klaus G. Andersen, Fredericia Shipping, to the Danish newspaper Børsen. “At the time of planning, prospects were really interesting, but the financial crises has caught up with our initiative”, he adds.
The service was set up in a joint venture between Fredericia Shipping and Seatruck Shipping, which is a part of the Danish Clipper Group. The ro-ro-vessel Moondance was made redundant by several newbuildings on Seatruck’s Irish services. The ship will now return to Liverpool for lay up.
