A HOUOU is a Panamax bulk carrier built in 2001 by Namura Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. in Japan. With a deadweight tonnage of approximately 74,196 DWT, she falls within the classic Panamax size range, designed to transit the original Panama Canal locks.

The vessel is registered under the flag of Panama with MMSI 371793000 and IMO number 9229609, the latter serving as her permanent international identifier. Her call sign is 3FOV9.

As a Panamax bulk carrier, A HOUOU is designed to carry dry bulk commodities such as coal, grain, iron ore, fertilizers, and similar bulk cargoes. Her dimensions — a beam of approximately 32.26 m and a length of 225 m — reflect the Panamax design envelope optimized for maximum cargo capacity while maintaining canal and port access flexibility across major global bulk trade routes.
