Originally, the ferry was ordered for February 2011 delivery from Astilleros MCIES in Spain, but which went into bankruptcy. An almost identical vessel was

therefore subsequently ordered from Hvide URANIBORG Sande. However, the hull was sub-contract- ed to Stocznia Gdynia in Poland. While URANIBORG is a small ferry, she is by far the biggest to serve the island of Ven, which belongs to Sweden. The name comes from the castle and , which was built by on the island in 1576. At that time, the island belonged to Denmark. Whereas the car capacity is almost identical to 1990-built STJERNEBORG, the newbuilding URANIBORG is much wider on the car deck. Therefore, there are still two lanes in width, whereas on the older ship, a trailer did not leave space for a car beneath. The project started as a 45 metre single- ended ferry, but when the decision was taken to go for a double-ended configura- tion, the length/beam ratio resulted in a somewhat longer ferry. A detailed article about the ferry was published in Shippax CFI February 2013.
