Vessel Description

A general cargo vessel built in Japan in 1999 and registered under the Comoros flag. With a deadweight of approximately 2,810 tonnes and a length of 82.5 metres, the vessel is suited to short-sea and regional coastal trading operations. The vessel operates under a Class A AIS transponder and is actively tracked within Indian Ocean shipping lanes. Its relatively modest dimensions and draft make it adaptable to smaller regional port facilities across East Africa and the western Indian Ocean island territories.
