Vessel Description

TULU is a Danish-flagged passenger ferry operating under the Faroese domestic shipping company Strandfaraskip Landsins (SSL), which provides the primary public ferry network across the Faroe Islands. Built in 1994 at Ørskov Christensens Staalskibsværft in Frederikshavn, Denmark, the vessel serves inter-island routes within the Faroese archipelago in the North Atlantic. TULU is designed for short-sea passenger operations in the challenging sea conditions typical of the North Atlantic region, connecting communities across the Faroe Islands where road or tunnel connections are unavailable or impractical.
