Livia is a roll-on/roll-off (Ro/Ro) ferry soon to be operated by StraitNZ on their Wellington–Picton service. It was built in 2008, and originally named Norman Voyager. In 2025, the ship was sold to StraitNZ, where it is expected to enter service on its Bluebridge Cook Strait service in August 2025, filling in for sister MV Connemara, and later replacing MS Strait Feronia.
