Fjord Cat fast ferry in Öresund

Fjord Cat, one of the world´s fastest ferries, was this morning on its way to Landskrona for maintenance and/or refurbishing.

Here is some info about the ship:

 

HSC Fjord Cat is an Incat-built, ocean-going catamaran. It is one of the world's fastest car carrying passenger vessels and, as Cat-Link V, set the eastbound record for the fastest transatlantic journey. In 1998/1999, the ship sailed as Cat-Link V on the Århus-Kalundborg route in Denmark—then operated by Scandlines. From 1999 to 2005 it sailed as Mads Mols for Mols-linien. From 2005 to 2006 it was renamed Incat 049 by T&T Ferries in Trinidad and Tobago. In 2006 it was renamed Master Cat and has since been operating on the route between Kristiansand in Norway and Hanstholm in Denmark, later changed to Hirtshals, in the service of "Master Ferries". This company was merged with Fjord Line on January 1, 2008[1] and the ferry was renamed Fjord Cat.
