Eurochampion Jet 2 is an Incat-built, ocean-going catamaran. It is one of the world's fastest car carrying passenger vessels and, as Cat-Link V, set the eastbound record for the fastest transatlantic journey. In 1998/1999, the ship sailed as Cat-Link V on the Århus-Kalundborg route in Denmark—then operated by Scandlines. From 1999 to 2005 it sailed as Mads Mols for Mols-linien. From 2005 to 2006 it was renamed Incat 049 by T&T Ferries in Trinidad & Tobago. In 2006 it was renamed Master Cat and has since been operating on the route between Kristiansand in Norway and Hanstholm in Denmark, later changed to Hirtshals, in the service of "Master Ferries". This company was merged with Fjord Line on 1 January 2008[1] and the ferry was renamed Fjord Cat.
The ship was renamed "Skane Jet" as part of its relocation for the Königslinie route between Sassnitz and Ystad for FRS. This route started service in late September 2020[2][3].
In October 2025 it was purchased by the Greek company Seajets and renamed to Eurochampion Jet 2.
