Proudly Maroon, BSE Maritime Solutions has celebrated another win over the Blues, docking the iconic Sydney Ferry, MV Freshwater in Brisbane last night. BSE was the successful party in a highly competitive tender process and bringing the refit project to Queensland.
The 70m ferry travelled to Brisbane over the weekend, and berthed at the Sugar Terminal briefly for trimming before docking at BSE yesterday.
The five year survey and refit will take seven weeks. BSE has assembled an International team of experts to assist with the project.
