SHIPPAX DESIGNS 2 · SHIPPAXDESIGNS20 www.shippax.comSHIPPAXDESIGNS20 · 3 Upfront We are proud to present this latest issue of SHIPPAXDESIGNS, which features Grimaldi Lines’ ECO LIVORNO as the theme ship. ECO LIVORNO is part of the innovative twelve-ship GG5G series, three of which are modified Finneco Class GG5Gs for operation by the Grimaldi Group subsidiary Finnlines. These hybrid ro-ros are all about energy ef- ficiency, using both proven and the latest cutting-edge technologies to minimize their environmental footprint. Also included is a presentation of the highly advanced hybrid Superstar class ro-pax ferries, currently being built for use on Finnlines’ Naantali- Långnäs-Kapellskär route. In addition, an in-depth interview with Grimaldi Group’s owner Emanuele Grimaldi provides unique insights and views into what is one of the largest ro-ro operators in the world. As always in SHIPPAXDESIGNS, we present a selection of new and converted ferries, cruise and ro-ro ships delivered in the twelve months between 1 July 2019 and 30 June 2020, about which we have done our utmost to gather as much information as possible. In some cases, and not at all in accordance with our ambitions, we have had to replace general arrangement plans with deck plans. On behalf of the entire Shippax team, all authors and photographers, and everyone who contributed to this edition, we would like to wish you an enjoyable read. Above all, we would also like to thank our advertisers, and, in particular, our sponsor Grimaldi Group. The Shippax Team PHOTO : GEORGE GIANNAKIS www.shippax.comactemium.se BIGGER. BETTER. TOGETHER.
