History

Varbola was built by Astillerors de Huelva, Huelva, Spain as yard number 571.[5] She was built for Estonian Shipping Company, Tallinn. On 26 August 1998, she was chartered to Dart Line, Dartford for use on the Dartford–Vlissingen route. Varbola was renamed Dart 6 in January 1999. In September 1999, the charter ended and she reverted to Varbola. In October 1999, she was chartered to Merchant Ferries for use on the Heysham–Dublin route. In January 2003, Varbola was chartered to Dart Line for use on the Dartford–Vlissingen and Dartfort–Dunquerque routes. In May 2003, she was chartered to Norse Merchant Ferries for use on the Liverpool–Belfast route, transferring to the Heysham–Dublin route in April 2004.[5]

On 18 July 2005, Varbola was sold to Elmira Shipping & Trading, Piraeus and renamed RR Arrow. She was reflagged to Malta. On 23 December 2005, she was chartered to Condor Ferries for use between Portsmouth, Jersey and Guernsey. The charter ended on 14 January 2006, following which she entered service with Norfolk Line. On 30 October 2007,[5] she was sold to Seatruck Ferries for €15,000,000.[6] The ship was renamed Arrow in November. Following further service with Norfolk Line she was laid up at Liverpool in May 2009. Arrow re-entered service with Seatruck on 20 October 2009 on the Heysham–Dublin route.[5]

In May 2012 and 2013 Arrow was chartered to the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company for the Isle of Man TT. In October 2013 the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company confirmed the charter of Arrow on a long-term basis which commenced on 28 April 2014 with a purchase option.[7]

In April 2015 Arrow was called in to cover freight traffic as the Isle of Man Steam Packet Company fast craft Mannanan was out of service for nearly a week and the Ben-My-Chree was required to carry as many passengers as possible.[8]

On 18 March 2016, Arrow was called in to cover freight services to the Channel Islands for Condor Ferries as regular vessel, the Commodore Clipper, was covering routes for the Condor Liberation as the latter vessel was undergoing repairs.[9]
