Vessel Description

HARLE EXPRESS is a double-ended passenger and vehicle ferry operating in the German North Sea coastal region under the German flag. Built in 2020 at Pella Sietas in Hamburg, the vessel was constructed to serve the demanding tidal and shallow-water conditions of the Wadden Sea UNESCO World Heritage area. Operated by AG Reederei Norden-Frisia, she serves connections between the mainland port of Norddeich and the island of Norderney, one of the East Frisian Islands. The vessel's Voith-Schneider propulsion system provides exceptional maneuverability suited to the challenging tidal conditions and confined harbor approaches characteristic of this operating environment.
