Vessel Description
The GETXO is a Spanish-flagged Ro-Pax (Roll-on/Roll-off Passenger) ferry built in 1994 at the Juliana Constructora Gijonesa shipyard in Gijón, Spain. The vessel is designed to carry both passengers and wheeled cargo (vehicles), which is characteristic of short-sea ferry operations along the Spanish coast and surrounding waters.
With a gross tonnage of approximately 8,438 GT and a length of 130.7 metres, GETXO is a mid-sized ferry well suited for coastal and inter-port passenger/vehicle transport services. The vessel's name, Getxo, references the coastal municipality in the Basque Country, Spain, near Bilbao — a region historically significant in Spanish maritime trade.
The vessel has operated within the competitive Spanish short-sea shipping sector throughout its service life, which spans over three decades since its 1994 delivery.
