Damen Shiprepair Dunkerque (DSDu) carries out rebranding project for DFDS Seaways
The vessel refit was completed to a very tight time schedule with three of the D-Class ferries - ‘Dover Seaways’, ‘Dunkerque Seaways’ and ‘Delft Seaways’ - upgraded in just three weeks. To ensure the work was completed to schedule, Damen Shiprepair & Conversion formed a joint project team with the vessels’ owner to oversee the entire project, from safety to logistics.
