New ferry on Hiiumaa line called Muhumaa

kitse_piltFor some incomprehensible reason, Saaremaa Shipping Comany has named the new ferry operating between Hiiumaa and the mainland after the third largest island of Estonia – Muhumaa. But nevertheless, this ferry is brand new and sets a record in speed – instead of 1,5 hour travel, the crossing now takes only an hour and 15 minutes.

As an old Hiiumaa tradition goes, a goat is the first to welcome the „iron ship”. This time was no exception, Muusi the goat and the holder of the Hiiumaa tradition, former Mayor of Pühalepa municipality Tõnu Otsasson were inspecting the ship.
