MF Tysnes is a Norwegian car and passenger ferry in operation in Hardangerfjord since 1970.[2]

Ship history

The vessel was built by Haugesund Slip AS in Haugesund in 1970 for the Hardanger Sunnhordlandske Dampskipsselskap ("Hardanger-Sunnhordland Steamship Company"). Since then it has operated almost entirely between the villages of Kinsarvik, Utne and Kvanndal. In 2006 HSD merged with Gaia Trafikk forming a new company called Tide. The company ferry section changed its name to Norled in 2012.[2]
