COMMENTS
Capable of accommodating 621 passengers and crew and 86 cars or 256 lane meters of freight at speeds of over 40 knots, Santa Monica 1 features a unique hull form with a center-bow arrangement and a motion control system. These guarantee vastly improved speed and fuel consumption as well as a smoother ride and an enhanced onboard experience for both passengers and crew.

The superstructure is an independent structure, connected to the hull via rubber isolation mounts, for optimum noise and vibration performance. Vehicles are handled via a vessel-mounted ramp at the stern.

Situated atop the passenger deck, the wheelhouse features the latest navigation, monitoring, and control equipment. A dedicated berthing station, 360-degree views, and CCTV cameras deliver a high level of safety and control during voyages and berthing. There is raised helm seating, with all instruments fitted in dark grey and black consoles to aid night vision and minimize distraction. A separate ship's office and lounge is located aft of the bridge where crew can lay out charts, plan voyages, or relax from day-to-day activities.
