Govt Issue RFP For Two Fast Ferries

The Government has issued a Request for Proposals [RFP] for two 500 passenger fast ferries.

The Government said, “The Department of Marine & Ports Services on behalf of the Bermuda Government requires two [2] 500 passenger catamaran fast ferries designed and built to Lloyds Classification standards to be used primarily for our Blue & Orange routes in Bermuda.

“These routes combined are approximately 17nm one way at our required service speed of 28kts. Ferries would operate up to 16hrs per day approximately 5 days per week, refueling, and services will be at the end of each service day.

“The vessels must have good sea keeping capabilities and be of modern design to fit into our existing dock arrangements in Bermuda and to meet the demand of our evolving cruise ship industry.”
