Lloyd's Register announced that various vessels on order will be elected to Lloyd's Register class, namely two RoPax vessels for Anek Lines in Crete.
The 669 ft. (204 m) RoRo cargo/passenger ferries, sailing under the Greek flag at 31,000-gt will carry up to 1,500 passengers between Greece and Italy at a service speed of 27.5 knots.
