The catamaran Jesús Rosa Acuña is ready to sail. This vessel was delivered in Vigo last week. Our company, which was involved in its construction, supplied and installed both navigation and communications equipment, including a Furuno M-1835 model radar, a Furuno AIS FA-170 as well as a GMDSS-compliant FM-8900S model Furuno VHF radiotelephone.

Initially this catamaran will ply the route from Vigo to the Ons Islands, in the Atlantic Islands of Galicia National Park. Once the summer season is over, it will operate on the inter-island routes in the Canary Islands. Here are its most relevant features:

Name of the catamaran: Jesús Rosa Acuña

Ship owner: Susiacuña S.L.

Shipyard: Rodman-Polyships de Meira (Moaña) in Ría de Vigo.

Construction number: R69209

It should be noted that, when it comes to these types of vessels, Rodman-Polyships is one of Europe’s leading shipyards.
