Vessel Description

The CMA CGM FORT BOURBON is a modern container feeder vessel operating under the French flag as part of the CMA CGM Group fleet — one of the world's largest container shipping companies headquartered in Marseille, France. The vessel's name follows CMA CGM's tradition of naming vessels after significant historical and geographic references associated with French territories.

The ship is purpose-deployed on the French Caribbean corridor, connecting metropolitan France (principally the port of Le Havre) with the French Antilles islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe, serving the critical supply chain needs of France's overseas departments (DOM). As a feeder vessel, it is optimized for the relatively shorter Caribbean trade lanes, delivering containers transshipped from larger mainline vessels or loaded directly from French ports.

Flying the French flag (MMSI prefix 228), the vessel is subject to French maritime authority oversight and complies with EU and international maritime regulations including SOLAS, MARPOL, and ISM Code requirements.
