Rolls-Royce to Propel New Danish Ferry
Danish ferry operator Mols-Linien has ordered a new passenger ferry from the Rauma Marine Constructions yard in Rauma, Finland. Rolls-Royce will provide the main propellers and propulsion control system to the new ship, which is planned to operate between mainland Denmark and the island of Bornholm, also known as the sunshine island of the Baltic Sea. Rolls-Royce will deliver two units of a Promas system which integrates the controllable pitch propeller, a propeller hub cap, a rudder with bulb and a twisted leading edge into one hydrodynamically optimized unit.

(A) 22 deg. 15.475'N / 114 deg. (B) 22 deg. 15.668'N / 114 deg. (C) 22 deg. 15.540'N / 114 deg. (D) 22 deg. 15.430'N / 114 deg. The works will be carried out by one work boat. Some guard boats will provide assistance. The number of vessels engaged in the works will change from time to time to suit operational requirements. To facilitate the laying of submarine tracking cables, two pairs of concrete blocks will be laid approximately along the 3 metres depth contour lines of the respective north-east coast and south-west coast of Hei Ling Chau and Sunshine Island. Each block is a one metre height cube shape structure. Yellow marker buoys fitted with yellow flashing lights will be attached to the blocks to indicate their positions.
