I know the name, Cat Link 2, and its got the Blue Ribband for the Fastest Transatlantic Crossing.

She is the Cat Link V (now Fjord Cat) and is currently the holder of the Hales Trophy, a trophy awarded for the fastest trans-atlantic crossing.
However, she is not considered the holder of the Blue Riband, as she made the crossing without passengers.
That honour is still held by the SS United States since 1952 (!)   :)

No one answered my Question yet so here is the answer since it's time is up. The answer was the Cunard Liner, RMS Queen Mary 2.

That's the Sirius, considered as the first Blue Riband holder for her voyage in 1838 to New York at 8.03 knots.

Also SD asked the same question some months ago!
