New Roll-On-Roll-Off Ship For Tasman Run

A £3 million roll on roll off vessel will run Sydney Hobart and Bell Bay in Tasmania. Captain J P Williams of the Australian Coastal Shipping Commission says the Empress of Australia, operated by Australian National Line, may launch in August and start service late next year.
