MV Caedmon

MV Caedmon was an Isle of Wight 'C' class ro-ro vehicle and passenger ferry.

MV Caedmon was built in 1973 for Sealink by Robb Caledon Shipbuilders Ltd in Dundee, Scotland.

[6] They were sold for scrapping and initially laid up at Marchwood,[7] before being towed to Esbjerg, in Denmark.

[8] The car deck had a ramp fore and aft, allowing full ro-ro operation.

Unlike the earlier pioneer C-class ship Cuthred, the main engines were not additionally loaded by a generator, so larger Voith Schneider units were fitted and there was considerably more propulsive power.
