Company Shipbuilder Fincantieri Vessel name Aries Vessel type Fast RoRo Pax Owner/operator Tirrenia Aries, built by Fincantieri, is the first of a series of four MDV3000 Jupiter monohull fast ferries ordered by Tirrenia. During sea trials the 476 ft. (145 m) vessel reached a speed in excess of 45 knots in light conditions and at 100% MCR rating. The carrying capacity at a ser- vice speed of over 40 knots is 1,800 passengers and 460 cars. Moreover, the three garage decks can be loaded simultaneously for fast harbor turnaround time. With hoistable car-deck modules, the transport capacity can be altered to reflect fluctuations in passenger and car service needs from tourist season to low season and at night. Aries and her sister ship Taurus have been built in high tensile steel with superstructures in alu- minum alloy. Four diesel engines and two gas turbines supply power at 95,000 hp. In June 1998 the vessels joined the route between Civitavecchia (Rome) and Olbia (Sardinia).
