The era of the Mediterranean “twin” ships has begun. This was confirmed by the first voyage of the second arrival in the Moby home: the Legacy, sister ship of the Fantasy which made its first voyage to Livorno Olbia, disembarking in the Gallura port on Sunday morning.
The Moby Legacy arrived in Livorno on January 28th after a journey that began on December 27th with departure from the Chinese shipyard of Guangzhou Shipyard towards Livorno and after sailing across three oceans and rounding the Cape of Good Hope.
The maiden voyage
Then the maiden voyage from the port of Livorno to Sardinia, following a particularly busy route during the summer period but guaranteed all year round.
Moby Legacy is the sister ship of the Moby Fantasy (whose christening took place in June 2023), the two ships which, as the shipping company points out «have revolutionized the way of sailing in Italy and which between Livorno and Olbia offers its passengers a I travel with the largest and greenest ferry in the world with cruise ship standards and unique on-board services.”
The largest
