The last St Ola

'A friend of mine who lives in Sweden found this photo of the internet and mailed it to me.

I believe the Ola is working in the Baltic maybe between Finland and
Estonia, but I do not have that confirmed, maybe someone knows more...@

In 2005 she was to be refitted for a planned new service on the Baltic on a route between Kotka (Finland) and Sillamäe (close to Narva, Estonia). The service should include the Russian island of Suursaari for the summer season 2006 (not sure, if that happened - there were some beaurocratic probs with the Russians)

The St Ola is working in Estonia for SSC Ferries sailing the Kuivastu-Virtsu route (35 min crossing). Kuivatsu is on the island of Muhu which is joined by a dam to Saaremaa (Estonia's largest island with 45, 000 population) and is the most direc route.
