**[MS](/source/Ship_prefix) *Superfast XI*** is a fast jumbo [ropax](/source/Ropax) [ferry](/source/Ferry) currently operating between [Patras](/source/Patras)-[Igoumenitsa](/source/Igoumenitsa) and [Ancona](/source/Ancona) under [Superfast Ferries](/source/Superfast_Ferries). She was built in 2002 by the [Howaldtswerke-Deutsche Werft](/source/Howaldtswerke-Deutsche_Werft) (HDW) at [Kiel](/source/Kiel), Germany for [Attica Group](/source/Attica_Group)'s wholly owned subsidiary [Superfast Ferries](/source/Superfast_Ferries).

## Concept and construction

The *Superfast XI* is the first ship in a pair of fast ferries built by HDW for Superfast Ferries' [Adriatic Sea](/source/Adriatic_Sea) services. She was launched on 3 August 2001,[3] and delivered to her owners on 10 July 2002. Her Sister ship is [Superfast XII](/source/MS_Superfast_XII), which was deployed on the same route. *Superfast XI* is the 11th in a series of 12 similar ferries built for Superfast ferries at various ship yards in [Northern Europe](/source/Northern_Europe).

## Service history

The *Superfast XI* entered service for Superfast Ferries on 20 July 2002 on the [Patras](/source/Patras)-[Igoumenitsa](/source/Igoumenitsa)-[Ancona](/source/Ancona) route, and has remained on this route since.

The ship was also used for a British children's show called [Me Too!](/source/Me_Too!_(British_TV_series)), which aired between 2006 and 2008 and was used as part of some episodes.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*]
