Finnish shipbuilding company Rauma Marine Constructions launches MyStar, an eco-friendly LNG-powered shuttle ferry owned by Estonian shipping company Tallink Grupp.
Rauma holds a christening and float-out ceremony for the 50,000 gross tonnage fast ferry as a part of the launching.
The vessel will use LNG as its main fuel to meet all the current and future known emission regulations.
