dship Floats MV Charlie

This week, dship welcomed MV Charlie to their fleet by putting her in the water for the first time.

MV Charlie is another Multi-purpose heavylift newbuild from their latest generation F-500 vessel type. Like MV Ronnie, this vessel is further optimised with a Becker Mewis Duct® device and Becker Rudder, leading to even lower consumption. It is equipped with two Liebherr cranes, featuring a lifting capacity of 250 metric tons (MT) each, and has a deadweight of 12,385 MT.

dship says the new vessel will be in service very soon.

“The MV Charlie is a further part of dship Carriers’ fleet expansion program, and it is part of the company’s sustainable growth for the future. We are proud of our contribution and wish the crew all the best on future voyages,” said Lars Feller, Global Vice President, dship Carriers.

The F-500 vessel type belongs to the new generation of economic multi-purpose heavy lift vessels, which have been specially developed to reduce fuel consumption and to increase stowage flexibility.

dship Carriers’ fleet currently consists of various multi-purpose heavy lift vessels—the largest, MV Mick and MV Keith, have a combined lifting capacity of up to 500 metric tonnes. With a 75-metre-long main cargo hold and adjustable tween decks, the F-500 vessel type provides various stowage options for clients’ needs.
