If you were in Yarmouth Harbour yesterday you may have seen a new foot passenger ferry make its arrival.
Quay2Quay’s latest vessel, Kraken, made its debut after a delivery voyage from Dover to Yarmouth.
A £1m investment
Quay2Quay have invested £1m in Kraken, a 15-metre-long catamaran built by Blyth Catamarans.
The vessel boasts a capacity of 110 passengers, promising a more comfortable and efficient journey for commuters and tourists alike.
A nine-hour journey
Kraken’s final delivery stage spanned nine hours, with a refuelling stop in Brighton.
Kraken’s arrival in Yarmouth was watched by Andrew Cooke, who was able to tour the new ferry and found the interiors and facilities to be very impressive. Our thanks to Andrew for sharing his photos.
Ready for service
He explained that Kraken will soon begin operations on the Yarmouth-Lymington route (around ten trips per day, as well as trips to the Needles), enhancing the rebranded Quay2Quay service.
With an onboard toilet and bar, passengers can look forward to enjoying the modern amenities aboard Kraken during their crossings.
