Inaugural Vessel Launched at Austal Tasmania

The first of two 47.5 metre passenger catamaran ferries for New World First Ferry (Macau) has been launched at Austal Tasmania, marking a historic milestone for the growing shipyard.

With new orders for the shipyard currently being finalised and a workforce which has grown from 40 to more than 120 during the past 12 months, the inaugural launch signals the emergence of Austal Tasmania as a significant member of Austal’s global production capacity.
