Capella förbereds för trafik på Holmöleden

Just nu pågår ett intensivt arbete för att rederiets nyinköpta färja Capella ska bli klar för trafik på Holmöleden under 2014. Fartyget ligger på Fridhems varv i Lysekil och under april månad ska blästrings- och målningsarbetet ombord vara genomfört.

– Det som nu ligger närmast i tid är att blästra och måla bildäck, säger Hans Söderkvist, nautisk rådgivare och tillförordnad distriktchef i Färjerederiet.
Målningen har gått bra och arbetena går enligt plan. När nu de yttre delarna börjar bli färdiga, är det dags att ställa passagerarsalongerna, brygga och maskinrum i skick. Det byggs en särskilt avpassat plats som passar för personer som reser med rullstol. Det kommer även att erbjudas en särskild salong för personer som reser med djur, vilket underlättar för allergiker.

Parallellt med uppfräschningen införs ett nytt säkerhetssystem ombord. Capella som i många år gått i reguljär i finska farvatten, har god manöverduglighet i hög sjö och is. Det finns en säker motor och en fungerande slingerköl som stabiliserar vid sjögång.

Färjerederiet lägger inom kort ut en upphandlingsförfrågan angående mätningar vid färjelägena på fastlandssidan och på Holmön. Avsikten är att förbättra angöringen för det nya fartyget.
– Men även innan detta jobb och åtgärder för anpassningen är färdigställda, kommer vi att kunna trafikera med stöd av tillfälliga säkerhetslösningar, säger Hans Söderqvist.


Hur blir det med trafiken på Holmöleden till sommaren?

I maj ska nuvarande färja Helena Elisabeth in på varv för underhåll under en tvåveckorsperiod, och kommer då att ersättas med fartyget Sanna som lastbåt. Från den 10 maj och hela augusti kommer det ett ersättningsfartyg som kommer att bara ta passagerare.Vägfärjan Sanna kommer också att finnas på plats sommartid för att stödja med transporter. Rederiet räknar med att Capella kommer att finnas på plats på Holmöleden efter sommaren 2014. Under Capellas intrimningstid finns Helena Elisabeth på plats för att kunna assistera vid behov.
