Stena Britannica II - Stena Britannica (4)
 
Stena Adventurer
 
 
This page is devoted to postcards and photographs of the Stena Line ro-pax ferries Stena Britannica II and Stena Adventurer. Stena Britannica II entered service between Harwich and the Hook of Holland in February 2003. She was renamed Stena Britannica (the fourth of the name) soon after entering service. Stena Britannica (4) is owned by Stena parent company Stena Ro-Ro, and is chartered to Stena Line BV who operate the Harwich-Hook of Holland route. Stena Adventurer entered service between Holyhead and Dublin later in 2003. Both sisters are of 30500 gross tons, carry 380 passengers and 200 trailers, and have a service speed of 22knots. Stena Britannica II replaced the Stena Britannica (3) at Harwich in 2003 - Stena Britannica (3) was then sold to Finnlines, joining the first two sisters in the Stena Seapacer series.
 
The HSS Stena Discovery was withdrawn from the Harwich-Hook route on 8th January 2007 due to increasing fuel costs. The Stena Britannica (4) and Stena Hollandica were lengthened in turn between 18th January and May 2007, temporarily replaced by the Stena Trader. She returned to service on 12th March 2007.
 
There are pictures of Stena Britannica at Harwich on: 16/03/2003, 15/06/2003, 27/07/2003, 19/11/2005 and 9/12/2006. Pictures of her lengthened were taken on 12/03/2007, 14/03/2007, 20/05/2007, 1st March 2008 and 14th April 2008

The success of the Harwich-Hook ro-pax service introduced with the Stena Britannica in 2000 was such that a larger vessel was required on the overnight services from Holland. Stena Britannica II was delivered from Korea in February 2003. Her sistership is Stena Adventurer on the Holyhead-Dublin service. There are currently no plans to replace Stena Hollandica on the overnight service from Harwich. Stena Britannica II was renamed Stena Britannica (the fourth of the name) soon after entering service.
