Chartering of fast ferry Tallink Autoexpress 2

AS Tallink Grupp has signed a charterparty whereby 
the HSC Tallink Autoexpress 2 will be chartered to 
Venezuelan company Consolidada de Ferrys .C.A. until 
September 2009.  The vessel will be operated in 
Venezuelan coastal waters.

Economically the contract is beneficial to Tallink, 
especially in the situation where the operations of 
this type of fast ferries between Tallinn and Helsinki 
have become unprofitable due their high fuel consumption 
in the high fuel price environment.
