Vessel Description

CAT TUA is a high-speed catamaran passenger ferry built by Incat Tasmania, one of the world's leading manufacturers of large aluminum high-speed craft. Constructed in 1992, the vessel represents early-generation Incat wave-piercing catamaran technology, designed for fast passenger and vehicle ferry operations. The aluminum catamaran hull configuration provides both structural efficiency and high-speed capability, with waterjet propulsion enabling transit speeds well above conventional ferry services. The vessel is registered under the Maltese flag and operates within the Mediterranean region.
