Transfennica was founded in 1980 and initially only sailed with one ship, the Karelia . In the following years the number of ships and routes increased steadily until Transfennica 2000 served the North and Baltic Sea region with a total of 16 ships .
In 2002 Transfennica was taken over by the Dutch Spliethoff Group . A year later, the Stena Forecaster and Stena Forerunner were chartered by Stena RoRo.
