Sister ships

The Stena Adventurer is the second of two ships built by Hyundai Heavy Industries for Stena Line in 2003 . Her sister ship is today's Stena Scandinavica , built as Stena Britannica II , which is used on the Gothenburg - Kiel route. The Stena Britannica was extended at the beginning of 2007 at the Lloyd shipyard in Bremerhaven, so that the two ships are no longer identical.
