On Friday the 15th of November, 11.00 hrs, our Nb. 477 will be launched in Leer.

Nb. 477 named as ‘FWN Antarctic’ is the third vessel in a series of six that will be delivered to Forestwave Navigation. These vessels are an evolution of the successful ‘Ecobox’ and ‘Ecobox DP’ series that the yard already build over the recent years.

The new Ecobox XL design has its focus on loading extra long items, such as windmill blades, while at the same time still maintaining her good capabilities as a general cargoship. The modifications in design and systems are also aimed to further enhance her excellent ‘green’ performance with a reduction of her EEDI-score to a new class reference standard.

Therefore the original Ecobox design is lengthened by more than 21 mtr, extending her box shaped hold to more than 100 mtr length on the tanktop, and 112 mtr above the movable tweendeck level. The new ships are 18 mtrs wide, enhancing her cargo deadweight further, and maintaining here flexibility of loading while keeping a very low resistance on both flat water and in waves.

Fuel consumption is further reduced by integrating a novel ORC waste heat generator in the propulsion system. This system further consists of a 3300 kW main engine driving a nozzled controllable pitch propeller running in fully automatic combinator mode. The fuel system will also be suitable for bio blend fuels.

On Friday the 25th of October, 11.00 hrs, our Nb. 464 will be launched at our yard in Westerbroek.

Nb. 464 will be named as ‘Spiken’, and will be delivered to Erik Thun AB from Lidkoping, Sweden.

Spiken is the second ship in a series of six that will be built according to the new Trollmax mk 4 design. As the name says this is the 4th generation of general cargo bulkers specially designed for trading through the Trollhattan canal and locks, which connect the Swedish interior lakes with the North Sea near Goteborg.

Numerous improvements have been implemented for the new mk4 ; she now has a nozzled propeller, reduced engine output, hybrid technology with battery pack, optimized bulb form and transom shape, closed bridge wings. ...
