WALLENIUS SOL has successfully carried out sea trials of the brand-new ro-ro, which is due to replace ML Freyja on the Turku-Southern Paldiski-Bremerhaven-Zeebrugge-Tilbury-Cuxhaven service.

The 1A Ice Class, methanol-ready freighter - put together by shipbuilders from Visentini and designed by NAOS Ship and Boat Design - is 203-metre-long and offers 3,000 lane metres of cargo space.

South Enabler will be delivered in mid-May 2025, entering a five-year time charter for the Swedish shipping line.
