High Speed Ferry

The high speed ferry ATHENA was acquired by Interstate Navigation in the spring of 2006. The Company purchased ATHENA with the intent of providing a vessel that could transport its customers from Pt. Judith to Old Harbor in half the travel time (30 minutes), as its existing traditional ferry fleet. The all-aluminum catamaran, built in 2001, was constructed by Gladding-Hearn Shipbuilding, Duclos Corp. of Somerset, MA, to a design by Incat of Sydney, Australia. She is powered by (4) Caterpillar 3412E marine diesel engines, coupled to Hamilton Waterjets and delivering a total of 4,400 HP with a service speed of 30 knots. The vessel which has a passenger capacity of 250 features an active trim tab (ride control) system manufactured by Maritime Dynamics (MDI). She is USCG, Subchapter “K” certified, 99 feet in length, breadth of 30.5 feet and 88 gross tons. The passenger cabins on the vessel feature a food and beverage concession, LCD satellite flat screen televisions, comfortable airline style seating as well as table and bench seating. The wheelhouse features state of art navigational equipment as well as full electronic control of the engines and associated systems. The vessel is equipped with ramps for passengers with a disability or needing assistance. The passenger ferry ATHENA operates a full seasonal schedule beginning Memorial Day weekend and running through Columbus Day weekend.
