Red Funnel Ferries MV Red Falcon - Further Ferry Information and Vessel Description

Part of the Red Funnel Ferry Fleet MV Red Falcon

MV Red Falcon was designed as a Raptor class as they were known, they were a doubled-ended design with a central bridge affording excellent all-round visibility. There was no centre casing to impede loading and deployable mezzanine decks could be deployed in various configurations to improve flexibility. Voith Schneider propulsion, trialled on previous vessels in the fleet, gave excellent manoeuvrability, enabling her to turn on her own axis and even move sideways! Red Falcon entered service in April 2004 wearing the Company's new corporate identity and was an instant hit compared to the old Castle class ships. Red Falcon, like her sisters was lengthened and fitted with a new car deck by Remontawa Shipyard in Gdansk between Jan-Mar 2004. This increased her capacity to approximately 220 cars.

All Red Funnel Ferries offer hot and cold food, fresh coffee and cakes, a bar, and free Wi-Fi internet connections onboard.
