Vessel Description

POVL ANKER is a Danish RoPax passenger and vehicle ferry built in 1978 at Aalborg Værft in Denmark. The vessel has served the Bornholm route, connecting the Danish mainland with the island of Bornholm in the Baltic Sea, operating under the banner of Bornholmstrafikken (later rebranded as BornholmerFærgen).

As a RoPax vessel, she is designed to carry both passengers and wheeled cargo/vehicles, featuring roll-on/roll-off (RoRo) vehicle decks alongside passenger accommodation facilities. The vessel was a long-serving unit on one of Denmark's most strategically important domestic ferry routes, providing a critical transport link between Bornholm and the Danish mainland.
