Praia, Apr 23 (Inforpress) - CV Interilhas (CVI) announced Tuesday that it intends to use the ship Dona Tututa to reinforce the routes of the Sotavento line, following the accident involving the ship Liberdadi.

“We are evaluating all logistical and operational possibilities to ensure the continuity of the service on the Sotavento line. We will use the ship Dona Tututa to reinforce the routes of the Sotavento line”, it said in a statement.
