Vessel Description

GALERNA LAU is a small general cargo vessel built in 2019 at a Chinese shipyard and registered under the Mauritius flag. With a deadweight of approximately 7,050 tonnes and an overall length of just under 100 meters, the vessel is suited for regional and coastal cargo operations. Operating primarily in the Indian Ocean region, she is typical of the modern short-sea and feeder cargo segment, designed for versatility in carrying break-bulk and general cargo to ports with limited infrastructure. Her Mauritius registration reflects the island nation's maritime registry presence in the southwestern Indian Ocean trade network.
