March delivery for third Wightlink Croatian newbuilding

UK cross-Solent ferry operator Wightlink’s third Croatian newbuilding, Wight Sun, is expected to sail from the Brod. Kraljevica shipyard on 27th March, arriving in the Solent around mid-April. The first two ships in this series, Wight Light and Wight Sky, were delivered last year, but only entered service on the Lymington-Yarmouth run last week, following protracted environmental objections. 
The three ageing C-class vessels that the Croatian newbuildings replace, Caedmon, Cenred and Cenwulf, have all be laid up pending sale or scrapping. The latter is is though more likely to be their fate. Sphere: Related Content
