The title is completely wrong. Neither is it the biggest or the fastest trimaran-ferry. This is the Benchijigua Express. Also operated by Fred. Olsen Express. She’s 2,5 knots faster, 8m longer, takes about 150 more passengers and about 100 more cars. And: is older than this one. But you got 1 thing right: it’s a ferry.
As far as i can find the danish HSC Express 1&2 are the fastest/largest trimaran around. Both carry more cars and are heavier than Benchijigua Express, as well as faster.(quite a bit so). While shorter, so not the longest.
@@matsv201 that wasn’t, what I tried to say with my comment. And it does not change the fact, that the videotitle is all wrong. And the ships you mentioned, are smaller and slower the the one I wrote about. The point is: those are catamarans. Not trimarans. They have only two hulls. Not three. 😉

These suck for inter coastal waterways. They create huge pressure waves underwater that cause huge waves to be formed when the underwater pressure waves hit underwater reefs and rocks, and then shorelines docks and marinas. BC spent 540 million building a fleet that had to be scrapped because they cause so much damage everywhere they passed by . First they capped their speed but then the fuel consumptions was worse than standard ferries. Great for open water thou.
Lifting and lowering onto hull is very low margin error task. Even an inch off and screwed. There has be better way like building from bottom up not in two pieces.
Fantastic! Breaks my heart to think that my country South Africa can’t even build a house, but only to steal from those who can build, and then they want to still travel in the gold class, makes you sad doesn’t it?
I was distracted from this amazing ship by those police boats that were also docked there. That was impressive for a police boat. Not as impressive as this ship however.
The title is simply misleading, since its older sister ship, the "Benchijigua Express", is significantly larger. I have travelled on the "Benchijigua Express", very nice. Very interesting construction and launching techiques shown in the video. The superstructure shows a lot of strength.
That's a pisser. I was there in the 70s and have good memories of the ferries and Seattle. Before all the human debris littered the streets and aunt teefa and black live smatter fkd everything up.
Car companies are quickly trying to remedy that. You don't hear about exploding cell phones and exploding laptops anymore, because battery technology is improving and becoming safer.
A$190 million Austal Australia delivered the first trimaran (Hull 394) of the two vessel A$190 million contract, the Bajamar Express, in July 2020. Austal Limited Chief Executive Officer Paddy Gregg said the successful launch was the first to be completed using Austal Philippines' new floating dry dock, Hercules, procured in 2020.
I'm thinking of an idea for the return of ocean liners as "micro liners" - ships carrying maybe 100-200 people per voyage, shuttling them across the ocean. The idea would be to supplement the current Cunard liner services with more transoceanic options. People generally fly across the ocean those days, so there is probably a small market for this - but I bet it's not a market of zero.
Internet capacity and workplace compatibility would be a feature of such liners of tomorrow- and telework might make them feasible. If you can work from anywhere, you might be able to afford more time away from the office.
Yes, an awesome ship. Please note that as the "first" of its kind, it is not only the fastest, but also the slowest...! (The most expensive, the least expensive...)

An impressive achievement that demonstrates what humans can accomplish… worthwhile, useful, technologically advanced. the builders of this ship are the real superheroes!
Those boats were also built by this same ship builder. This is just a mistake in the quote by OP. This builder built the first fast one, now this was the an evolution of that and is the biggest (not by length as others have said, but by displacement, how boats are usually compared).

Well of course it’s going to be the “largest” if it’s the “first” duh. Lol it could have been 6” long and if it was the “first”………it would have been the “largest”.
What a beautiful video & beyond amazing to see such a process in modern detail! It blows my mind a ship just as capable was launched twenty years ago & is still in service by the same company, “HSC Benchijigua Express”! 💙
Unfortunately Express 5 by Molslinien has already surpassed this fast ferry. 1610 passengers and 451 cars makes it bigger. Build by the same manufacturer though. Impressive how fast development is moving these days.
Express 5 is a catamaran, not trimaran and if your talking about fast ferries Colorline's MS Superspeed 1 is even bigger with 2325 passengers, 764 cars and 2036 lanemeter for trucks
@@Pingla71 You are correct. But it is amzing how big and fast they all are getting. Downside will always be the environmental impact. I work next to a fast ferry terminal and the amount of fuel trucks visiting through the day is astounding! But I cannot say I’m innocent as I use their service as well🤪
@@Pingla71 I believe, but correct me if I’m wrong, MS Superspeed 1 & 2 are only cruising with an average speed of 25 knots? Still fast but not super fast🙂
The engineering skills involved in the entire project are mind-bending! And what a beautiful boat this is. I wonder where it will be used in Australia? On the West Coast or the east coast?
@@higherresolution4490 it will never be used in Australia. It is currently being used by the company that commissioned it in Spain. Further no more of these will be built in Australia as the production facility for this company is in the Philippines. The Western Australia facility is only for building prototypes, the build the first ship in a series work out the bugs and then hand over production to the Philippines where it's cheaper to build ships
I love technology, but looking back at the history of how technology evolved does kind of question me, why I can't we live in peace instead of taking resources from another than later show off to the world how advanced you are in technology.
VERY annoying unnecessary music.
What’s wrong with the music it sounds a little sinister but I think it’s OK…… what do you want them to play RAP??…turn your volume down!!!!
With respect if it is the "first" then surely , no matter it's size , it must be the largest without one other to compare it to.?
Unless they knew the world’s second trimaran would soon launch, but that this one is still the largest
Why do the makers of videos like this always have to smash people over the head with music that would be more at home in a gladiator movie?
Turkish high-tech ! I have a folder about it.
Escape the matrix !
It’s amazing!!! The engineering of the boat is one thing, but the assembly is incredible. 🤯🤯
All that and didn't even get to see it at full speed.

Either way the video gets a 1 out 5 rating by me. Drama music and little more. No real content.
This ship is operated in the Canary Island, Spain, for travels from las Palmas to tenerife and go back
Well done to all the team who made this a reality.
Makes me proud to be an Aussie!
I think the first technologies was develop by Filipino. But the company was joining the venture to the Philippines.
Fred Olson Express? Lets take some vanity out of the equation and name it something fitting.

What is the purpose of the music?
To add some drama😂
Speed ? Horsepower ?
Not seeing any lifeboats. In seafaring terms, that's kinda like asking for it. Over a thousand passengers in the water makes a hard rescue.
Interior was designed by babyboomers. 😂😂😂 It ain't the 70's yo.
Hope they don’t play that music on board.
Lifting and lowering onto hull is very low margin error task. Even an inch off and screwed. There has be better way like building from bottom up not in two pieces.
I think I would have spent a couple more hundred dollars on some big fenders when you pulled it up to the docks 😂😂😂😂
Wish they won the Scottish ferry contract 😅👴🏼🏴
Fantastic! Breaks my heart to think that my country South Africa can’t even build a house, but only to steal from those who can build, and then they want to still travel in the gold class, makes you sad doesn’t it?
some information would have been nice.
If it’s the first, how can it not be the largest? 😂
I'm still amazed that it was built in those little buildings 😂

Watching zone 3 SAN ANTONIO barangay tobod iligan city phelliphenes
Is that Austal in Western Australia?
Yes it is🇦🇺
If it is the first it is largest by default.
unbearable sounds. what an idi..
Only 2 things I wanted to know...How much horsepower &how many knots. Now I won't be able to sleep tonight!
Actually the second one because of the Condor Liberation which came out 5 years before in 2015
And wasn’t it 2nd hand when they got it. Also similar Fred Olson sails in the Canary Islands.

Ok, thanks
I think they need a bigger building to build these things
Meanwhile in WA state the ferry aystem has 26 ferries and only 11 are active. We cant even keep ours running and staffed.
That's a pisser. I was there in the 70s and have good memories of the ferries and Seattle. Before all the human debris littered the streets and aunt teefa and black live smatter fkd everything up.
Made in Cebu..
Why can't Philippine Ferry Operators employ these modern ferries..
Is it because of the cost? The Pinoys deserve better.
One electric car could start an inferno inside, even with the most advanced fire fighting equipment on board.
Car companies are quickly trying to remedy that. You don't hear about exploding cell phones and exploding laptops anymore, because battery technology is improving and becoming safer.
someone SHOULD STEAL THIS AND DRIVE IT TO THE DOME AROUND THE FLAT EARTH, WONDER IF IT WOULD MAKE IT ???????????
Has anyone seen information that provides an idea of how long it takes for one of these to pay for itself?
all that solar power space and not one solar panel what a rubbish design
For what? Solar panels provide almost no energy
Water-jets on a craft that does 37 kts? Someone needs to explain how that's going to work. Just barely, is what we've seen in these clips.
Told you, we should have built a bigger shed! 🙂
I've seen those doors get blown in during a storm - please don't go bigger!
Amazing my friend success bjs Brasil 🇧🇷💋💞

It would be nice to see this operate between Tasmania and Melbourne.. given it was built here.. to replace the spirit of Tasmania.
Can’t wait to see it operating at full speed
Mainly for island hopping of a few hours in semi calm waters, cant see this doing ocean trips of 1 day or so.
Is this for trans oceanic voyages or just from Miami to Bahamas?
Can the ferry carry 500 cars? at 500 dollars fare will not even pay the interest.
1:53 You can tell you wanted to add star trek engines to this
I can see a rich person having this design converted over to a yatch... 😮
Agree, and that's actually what I first assumed from just the thumbnail.
Already done seen one in Singapore around 2013 was called tiger or elephant
I mean…..if I was rich, that’d be a cool yacht.
Why, does it look a lil’ Yachty to you?
I still remember this like it was yesterday
Loved working on that boat Hull 260
What a great place to do an apprenticeship
Yes it was!
Definitely - the Benchijigua express was larger than this one though🤔

Where did Fred Olsen get all this money from?
Fred olsen the real life Mr burns(google him)😂
That was 80 percent pilipino made..
Austal, the Forrest family-backed shipbuilder Australian know how awesome
F got tricked watching till the end, what speed slow as f
Overall a nice ship but the 70's interiors is not up to date.😏
That's 1990s but sure.. 1970s would be shag carpets and Disco balls
It’s a Time Machine.
TBF, it's a ferry not a cruise liner so the interior is adequate for the job.
Great looking ship
Gorgeous technology

Interesting fact, at 25 knots this vessel burns a gallon of fuel for every 125 feet it travels.
What's really important is how much fuel it burns per passenger mile. 1500 passengers and 240 cars probably means it is fairly fuel efficient.
Well of course it’s going to be the “largest” if it’s the “first” duh. Lol it could have been 6” long and if it was the “first”………it would have been the “largest”.
It's just amazing how they can make something so big and heavy float all that weight. Just beautiful.

what is the speed
Wow!!!!!
