Silja Line
Finland
(Oy Siljavarustamo - Ab Siljarederiet)
The original Silja Line was formed in 1957 as Oy Siljavarustamo/Ab Siljarederiet by the three shipping companies
co-operating between
Sweden and Finland (Finland Line, Bore Line and Svea Line) to operate ferries
as
opposed to the passenger ships of its parents. A marketing company using the Silja Line name was set up in 1970.
This company joined all ships of the four companies under its banner, and in the process, Siljarederiet was dissolved.
