Wallenius Wilhelmsen has launched the MV Tønsberg in Zeebrugge. The Mark V class is the most sophisticated vessel ever built in the roll-on roll-off.
The Mark V vessel is the largest of its kind, with a length of 265 metres offering a cargo volume of 138 000 cubic metres over six fixed and three hoistable decks. The pioneering roll-on roll-off vessel is built at Mitsubishi Heavy Industries in Nagasaki, Japan.

Four Mark V vessels will be delivered to Wilh. Wilhelmsen ASA and its partner Wallenius Lines. The second vessel will be delivered in August and two in 2012.
