Steel Cut 2.0 for Australia – the day has come!

We are officially restarting work on the construction of the LNG-powered RoRo ferry for SeaRoad.

FSG CEO Thorsten Rönner, FSG COO Michel Bollmann and Tony Johnson, Technical Marine Manager of the shipping company, jointly give the signal for the steel cut with the C57 module from section 43, the weather deck which is 23 meters above the keel.

This steel cut is more than just a start for Project 784, it is also the signal for the re-launch of the new FSG. The resumption of the project is a significant moment for us and shows that Flensburg still has a future in the shipbuilding industry.

The contracted RoRo vessel with a length of 210 metres and a width of 29.30 metres is scheduled for delivery to SeaRoad in the third quarter of 2026 calender year. It will have 3,722 lane metres available for the carriage of trailers / freight units, plus capacity for 101 cars (= 4,227 lane metres in total). A special requirement for the vessel is the capability to transport heavy cargo with a unit weight of up to 100 tonnes.
