Mexican ferry operator Baja Ferries has decided against repairing the fire-damaged 28,000-gt ro-pax ferry Caribbean Fantasy (built 1989). Brokers report that the ship has now been sold for recycling.
The vessel, currently laid up in the Bahamas, has been sold as is/where is for $145 per ldt.
It is not clear yet where the ship will be scrapped. It will have to be towed as its engines are inoperable due to damage incurred during a fire last August while operating between San Juan and Santo Domingo on charter to America Cruise Ferries (ACF).
