Welcome aboard the Skane Jet
The Skane Jet is a catamaran from the FRS Baltic shipping company and offers the fastest connection between Germany and Sweden. In only 2.5 hours it connects the idyll of Rügen with the beautiful southern Swedish region of Skåne.
A ship with history
The 91-meter-long high-speed catamaran can reach a top speed of up to 44 knots unloaded thanks to its four Ruston engines and 40,000 hp. Shortly after its launch in 1998, the ship impressively demonstrated its speed when it crossed the Atlantic from the USA to Great Britain in just 2 days, 17 hours and 59 minutes. The jet thus beat the existing record by an impressive 34 hours and was awarded the prestigious Blue Ribbon for the fastest transatlantic crossing.
