The ''Baie de Seine'' (previously named ''Sirena Seaways'', ''Dana Sirena''〔 and MS ''Golfo Dei Delfini'') is a RoPax ferry that operates for Brittany Ferries on the Portsmouth to Le Havre and Portsmouth to Bilbao routes. == History == Initially christened MS ''Golfo Dei Delfini'', the Baie de Seine was acquired by DFDS Seaways before entering service. It was rebuilt with extra passenger accommodation to be operated on the Harwich – Esbjerg route. The hull construction is a steel with aluminum alloy superstructure. As the ''Sirena Seaways'', the ship had space for 623 passengers and 423 cars.〔 Her sister the operated by DFDS subsidiary Lisco Lines.〔 She was serviced and repainted in February 2013. During this time it was rebranded as ''Sirena Seaways''.〔 On 22 June 2013, the ship collided with the dock at Parkeston Quay, with holes below the water line. Although passengers were stranded aboard for two hours, the leak was brought under control and there were no serious injuries.〔 The Harwich - Esbjerg route was closed on the 29th September 2014 due to loss of passengers. DFDS Seaways did this since it was working hard to cut operating costs in order to make the company more competitive. This is also a consequence of the increase of the size of the Sulphur Emission Controlled Areas (SECA), which increased fuel cost of companies, that had to close marginal routes. The Harwich - Esbjerg route, closed since it began operating in 1875. This closure also lead to the absence of DFDS Seaways route that connect directly England to Denmark. Later, DFDS Seaways reported that ''Sirena Seaways'' was to be moved to other routes as the Paldiski - Kapellskär route between Estonia and Sweden began being used 6 October 2014.〔 The ''Baie De Seine'' was laid-up in Gdańsk during the winter of 2014–2015. She received new gas-filters, to fit with new European regulations about sulphur emissions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「MV Baie de Seine」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
