M/S Galaxy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
M/S Galaxy is a cruiseferry operated by the Estonian ferry company Tallink on a route connecting Helsinki, Finland to Tallinn, Estonia. She was built in 2006 by Aker Finnyards, Rauma as the largest ship ever delivered to Tallink. As of 2007, she is the longest cruiseferry (but not the longest ferry) to operate in the northern Baltic Sea. She is also the largest ship ever to be registered in Estonia.
The ship's unique external livery has been designed by the Estonian artist Navitrolla.
