Two
pairs of sisters are now operating in Scottish waters - on the West coast
at Cairnryan, and on the East coast at Rosyth. In July
P&O's European Highlander joined its near sister European
Causeway on the Cairnryan to Larne route, as can be seen
above. Earlier in the year, the Greek company Superfast
started their Rosyth to Zeebrugge service with sisters Superfast IX
and Superfast X as can be seen below. |

Superfast
won the contract to operate the service between Rosyth and Zeebrugge (B)
that started in May 2002. Above left: Superfast IX
