**MV *Chenega*** is a catamaran ferry built by [Derecktor Shipyards](/source/Derecktor_Shipyards) in [Bridgeport](/source/Bridgeport), [Connecticut](/source/Connecticut) for the [Alaska Marine Highway System](/source/Alaska_Marine_Highway). She was launched in 2004 and primarily served routes in [Prince William Sound](/source/Prince_William_Sound) and [Southeast Alaska](/source/Southeast_Alaska). The ship proved uneconomical to operate on those routes, and she was laid up in 2016. In March 2021 she was sold to Servicios y Concesiones Maritimas Ibicencas for service between [Mallorca](/source/Mallorca) and [Menorca](/source/Menorca). In 2025 her Spanish owners reassigned her to a route crossing the [Strait of Gibraltar](/source/Strait_of_Gibraltar).

## Construction and characteristics

Much of coastal Alaska is inaccessible by road, leaving many widely dispersed communities dependent on weather-affected flights and long ferry rides. Residents of Prince William Sound and Southeast Alaska urged political leaders to find better transportation alternatives. In January 2000 Governor [Tony Knowles](/source/Tony_Knowles_(politician)) rejected building a road from [Juneau](/source/Juneau) to [Skagway](/source/Skagway) which would connect the state capital to the rest of the North American road network. Instead, he pushed for fast ferries between the towns of Southeast Alaska.[1] At the same time, ferry planners considering service improvements to [Seward](/source/Seward%2C_Alaska) and Prince William Sound communities began to focus on the same type of fast ferry.[2] These plans led to the construction of *Chenega* and her sister ship, [MV *Fairweather*](/source/MV_Fairweather).

*Chenega* was designed by BMT Nigel Gee & Associates of [Southampton](/source/Southampton), England.[3] She was built by [Derecktor Shipyards](/source/Derecktor_Shipyards) in [Bridgeport](/source/Bridgeport), [Connecticut](/source/Connecticut) as part of a two-ship contract. The deal included an option to purchase two more sisterships.[4] The contract was awarded in February 2002 and construction on *Fairweather* began in July 2002.[5] Construction on *Chenega* began in January 2003.[6] The ship was launched on December 11, 2004, and christened by Catherine Stevens, wife of Alaska Senator [Ted Stevens](/source/Ted_Stevens).[7] Shattered glass from the Champaign bottle broken across *Chenega's* bow cut Mrs. Stevens' finger and she left the party to get treatment for her wound.[8] Builder's sea trials began in [Long Island Sound](/source/Long_Island_Sound) in March 2005 and the ship left for Alaska later that month.[9]

*Chenega's* original cost was $36 million, much of which was funded by the [federal government](/source/Government_of_the_United_States).[10] Her construction was certified by the [Det Norske Vertias](/source/DNV_GL) [classification society](/source/Classification_society).[4]

*Chenega* is 235 feet (72 m) long, with a [beam](/source/Beam_(nautical)) of 59 feet (18 m), and a loaded [draft](/source/Draft_(hull)) of 8.5 feet (2.6 m). She [displaces](/source/Displacement_(ship)) 787 long tons. Her gross tonnage, calculated under international rules, is 3,420 tons, while her U.S. gross registered tonnage is 1,333. Her hull is constructed of an aluminum alloy. She has vehicle loading doors both on her [transom](/source/Transom_(nautical)) and starboard side to allow for different port configurations.[4][11]

She is powered by four [MTU](/source/MTU_Friedrichshafen) 20V 4000 M73L [diesel engines](/source/Diesel_engine) which produce 4,830 [bhp](/source/Horsepower) (3,600 kW) each. These drive four [KaMeWa](/source/KaMeWa) 90SII [water jets](/source/Pump-jet) with six-bladed impellers. This machinery is located in two separate engine rooms, half in each of the catamaran hulls. Her cruising speed is 32 knots, at which she burns 600 gallons of diesel fuel per hour. Her maximum speed is 43 knots. *Chenega* is equipped with an active interceptor roll control system to increase passenger comfort in rough seas and swells. She has two 100 hp [bow thrusters](/source/Manoeuvring_thruster), one in each hull, for maneuvering.[12]

Electrical power on the ship is provided by four Northern Lights M6125T generators, each capable of producing 185 kW. As with her propulsion machinery, the generators are split between the two engine rooms.[12]

She has two 6,900 gallon diesel fuel tanks and one 1000 gallon potable water tank.[12]

Her normal crew complement is ten.[11]

*Chenega* has a single vehicle deck with 620 feet (190 m) of lanes. She can therefore carry 31 standard vehicles or whatever combination of vehicles will fit. Above the vehicle deck she has seating for 210 passengers on a passenger deck. The passenger deck includes a snack bar, solarium, and child's play area. There are no passenger staterooms as the vessel is intended for day-use only.[10][12]

All Alaska Marine Highway System ferries are named after glaciers. *Chenega* was named after the [Chenega Glacier](/source/Chenega_Glacier) in Prince William Sound.[10][13]

## Operating history

*Chenega* was originally slated for service in Prince William Sound, shuttling between [Cordova](/source/Cordova%2C_Alaska), her homeport, [Valdez](/source/Valdez%2C_Alaska), and [Whittier](/source/Whittier%2C_Alaska). As the [Portage Glacier Highway](/source/Portage_Glacier_Highway) linked Whittier to [Anchorage](/source/Anchorage%2C_Alaska) by road, bus, and train, the fast ferry was not only expected to reduce travel time among its three stops, but to increase tourism in the region from the larger city.[14]

*Chenega* arrived at [Auke Bay, Alaska](/source/Auke_Bay%2C_Juneau) on May 11, 2005. The State did not reach an agreement with its labor unions to run the vessel, however, until July.[15] After the required training of the new crew, the ship ran its planned route for only two weeks before being reassigned, infuriating Prince William Sound residents.[16]

During the winter of 2005-2006 *Chenega* ran from [Ketchikan](/source/Ketchikan%2C_Alaska) to [Petersburg](/source/Petersburg%2C_Alaska). During this experiment, *Fairweather* ran from Juneau to Petersburg. The ships met in Petersburg in order to exchange vehicles and passengers for those who wished to travel the entire length of Southeast Alaska. The purpose of this routing was to test demand and operational issues to determine if the State should exercise its option to purchase an additional two ships in order to establish this service permanently.[17] Ridership was light and Governor [Frank Murkowski](/source/Frank_Murkowski) called the fast ferries a "bad deal." Based on this experience, the option to buy additional fast ferries under the contract with Derecktor was not exercised.[18]

In January 2006 *Fairweather* was drydocked for annual maintenance and it was found that the steel cylinder sleeves in her aluminum engine blocks had cracked, allowing coolant into the cylinders. Further, damage was detected in the reduction gears between the engines and water jets. *Fairweather* was under repair until early July 2006, when she returned to service with three new engines, four new reduction gears, and four new drive shafts. *Chenega* was assigned to replace *Fairweather* on her route in Southeast Alaska, but finally left for Prince William Sound in May 2006.[19]

*Chenega* speeding across Prince William Sound in 2014

*Chenega* spent most of her summers sailing Prince William Sound. She was often reassigned to Southeast Alaska, particularly in the winter when tourist travel in Southcentral Alaska ebbed. As a general matter, she sailed less in the winter when early darkness made avoiding floating logs that would jam her water jets difficult, and when high winds and seas exceeded her capabilities.[20][21][22]

The original engines installed in the fast ferries suffered a number of mechanical issues and were difficult to maintain. Only about 150 of these engines were ever manufactured and the only 8 in the state of Alaska were aboard *Fairweather* and *Chenega*.[23] Spare parts were not available and had to be manufactured when needed.[24] In 2010 the State sued Derecktor and MTU for unspecified damages related to the ongoing engine problems.[25] In March 2013, a month before the suit was to go to trial, an agreement was reached between the State and MTU. The engine manufacturer agreed to replace the ship's engines and offered a number of maintenance-related options on the new engines.[26] Pursuant to this agreement, in 2014 *Chenega* was repowered, replacing the four original MTU 16V595 TE70 engines with the current MTU 20V 4000 M73L engines.[12]

## Retirement from Alaskan service

*Chenega* and the Alaska Marine Highway System in general were subsidized by the State of Alaska. State funding for the ferry system peaked in the 2012 fiscal year at $111.2 million and was gradually reduced to $56 million in 2020, in part forced by a reduction in state tax revenues from oil extraction. Passenger traffic on the ferry system fell from 350,000 in 1998 to 251,000 in 2018, as more travelers opted for air travel. Car and truck traffic on the ferries remained stable.[27][28] These factors put *Chenega* at a disadvantage. Her high speed could not compete with airlines, but produced higher operating costs than traditional ferries. Her high speed came at the sacrifice of carrying heavy loads, leaving her with more limited capacity for cars and trucks than traditional ferries.

*Chenega* laid-up in Tacoma in 2017

While *Chenega's* speed was popular with travelers, her higher fuel consumption drove operating costs up significantly as fuel prices rose in the early 2000's. Budget considerations for the State of Alaska forced her retirement.[29] The ship was laid up in the [Vigor Marine](/source/Vigor_Industrial) shipyard in [Tacoma, Washington](/source/Tacoma%2C_Washington) in 2016.[30][31] She returned to Alaska to be laid up in [Ward Cove](/source/Ward_Cove), north of [Ketchikan](/source/Ketchikan%2C_Alaska). In October 2019 the State of Alaska issued a public notice seeking a broker to sell *Chenega* and *Fairweather*.[32]

In March 2021 *Chenega* and *Fairweather* were sold by the [Alaska Department of Transportation & Public Facilities](/source/Alaska_Department_of_Transportation_%26_Public_Facilities) to Servicios y Concesiones Maritimas Ibicencas for service in the [Balearic Islands](/source/Balearic_Islands) of [Spain](/source/Spain). *Chenega* was sold for $3,111,111.[33] Her new owner, ferry operator Trasmapi, hired a [heavy-lift ship](/source/Heavy-lift_ship), *Red Zed 1*,[34] to carry the two ferries to Spain rather than having them sail there under their own power.[35][36] The two ships were loaded aboard *Red Zed 1* on June 25, 2021.[37]

## Spanish service

*Chenega* moored in Gibraltar in 2025

*Chenega* and *Fairweather* arrived at [Ibiza](/source/Ibiza) by August 31, 2021.[38] In the summer of 2022, Trasmapi began a new ferry service between [Alcudia](/source/Alc%C3%BAdia) on [Mallorca](/source/Mallorca), and [Ciutadella](/source/Ciutadella_de_Menorca) on [Menorca](/source/Menorca) using *Chenega* and *Fairweather*.[39] The ship was repainted in the colors of her new owner, but retained the name *Chenega* and the gold-and-blue North Star symbol of Alaska on her funnel. This service was branded, "The Menorca Lines by Trasmapi". The trip took 75 minutes.[40]

Trasmapi reassigned *Chenega* to a new route between [Algeciras, Spain](/source/Algeciras) and [Cueta](/source/Ceuta) in North Africa beginning in March 2025.[41]
