Highspeed 6 is one of six 96m catamarans built by Incat Yards in Tasmania, Australia. Built in 2000 as Milenium,[1] she entered service with Trasmediterránea in June 2000 between Barcelona and Palma. In 2010 the Milenium was sold to Greek ferry operator Hellenic Seaways and renamed Highspeed 6.[2] In December 2016, it was sold to Naviera Armas and renamed Volcan de Teno.
