Commercial Marine Transport (CMT) is managing the complex transport of the high-speed catamaran Redjet 4 from Southampton, UK, to South Korea. Built by the Isle of Wight-based shipbuilder, Redjet 4 has served as an essential part of the ferry network operating between Southampton and the Isle of Wight since its launch in 2003. Known for its speed and efficiency, the vessel has been a vital component in reducing travel times across the Solent.
Coordinated from CMT’s headquarters near Southampton, this project involved meticulous planning and technical expertise to ensure the safe shipment of the iconic vessel. Given Redjet 4’s high-performance design, the CMT team utilised advanced loading techniques to secure the ferry and maintain its structural integrity during transit. Customised cradling and lashing methods were employed to stabilise the vessel for its journey across international waters.
This operation underscores CMT’s expertise in handling complex and high-value maritime shipments, particularly from its local base in Southampton. The Redjet 4 transport highlights CMT’s commitment to delivering tailored, efficient solutions for even the most challenging global marine logistics projects, while also marking the next chapter in the journey of a vessel with a rich local history.
