M/v ELK was built in 1978, has a service speed of 18
knots and a capacity of 2,040 lane metres. The vessel sails
between Middlesbrough and Gothenburg twice weekly and
Middlesbrough and Helsingborg once weekly.
The m/v ELK is registered under English flag and DFDS
have no intention of changing this.
DFDS Tor Line will lease back both the m/v ELK and the
trailers to P&O Ferrymasters with effect from 1
January, 2001. P&O Ferrymasters will thus continue to
operate both service and door/door traffic based on the
above-mentioned route. DFDS Tor Line will be able to use
the service.
Beginning 2001 negotiations with P&O Ferrymasters
will take place concerning a further strengthening of the
co-operation.
Yours faithfully,
DFDS A/S

Director, Preciding
