Delft Seaways is a ro-pax ferry owned an operated by DFDS Seaways. She is the one of three sister vessels designed for the cross-Channel Dover - Dunkerque route, capable of making the crossing in 1 hour and 45 minutes. The Maersk Delft is a Scandinavian designed vessel built at the Samsung shipyards in South Korea in 2005. She sails under the flag of the United Kingdom and her port of registry is Dover. The Maersk Delft, like her sister ships, has been designed with separate roll-on roll-off decks for freight and cars, which greatly reduces the loading and unloading times.[citation needed] Passenger facilities are spread out over two decks and include three restaurants, a bar, shop, children's play area, games arcade and a Bureau de Change. There are seven lifts for carrying passengers, crew and stores from the lower car and freight decks up to the passenger and crew decks. The crew accommodation is located on a separate deck and includes cabins, a dayroom, offices, laundry, stores and crew mess. An outstanding feature on board are the large panoramic windows at the front and the side with their uninterrupted sea views. The Delft has a top speed of 25 kts and has the capacity to carry 200 cars and 780 passengers. The ship has 132 paintings and prints made by artist Anne Vilsbøll. The paintings show movements in water, on water and by water.
