Damen Fast Crew Supplier 2710 for growing Irish fleet

Farra Marine will take delivery of their first Damen Fast Crew Supplier 2710 in June 2022. The Twin-Axe bow vessel combines the stable platform of a catamaran with the smooth sailing behaviour of the Sea Axe hull shape, providing optimal seakeeping characteristics and comfort.

The FCS 2710 vessel is based on a proven design, improved in close cooperation with industry leaders and can take 26 passengers.

She is being constructed at Damen Shipyards Antalya and will sail on her own keel from Turkey to her home port of Dublin. The vessel will be welcomed to the Farra Marine fleet by the name of Farra Lark.

Farra Marine from Dublin, Ireland, specializes in offshore crew delivery for the renewable energy industry. The company was founded in 2019, adding the FCS 2710 as Farra’s 7th vessel order that will be the 4th to go into operation when it is delivered in June this year.

The new Damen Fast Crew Supplier 2710 will operate in Irish and UK waters getting workers and provisions to and from offshore wind parks.
