Abstract

In January 2001 the Government of Japan signed documents for a grant for the construction of an inter-island vessel for Tuvalu. The Government of Japan, through its Fisheries Grant Aid programme, will provide 901 million yen (approximately USD 8.6 million) for the construction of the passenger/cargo vessel. The new vessel will provide regular scheduled services to the outer islands, while the present ferry, Nivaga II, will be used to carry passengers and cargo to and from Suva, Fiji Islands. The new 46.5-metre vessel will carry 80 passengers, 18 crew and 4 cadets. Storage facilities will include holds for dry cargo, fresh fish and frozen foods.
