Vessel Description

MV TOHOMARU is a small general cargo vessel built in Japan in 1989, operating under the Tanzanian flag. The vessel is engaged in coastal and short-sea cargo operations primarily within East African waters. As a compact cargo carrier of just over 700 gross tons, she is suited to smaller regional port calls and inter-coastal freight movements along the East African seaboard. Her Japanese construction is consistent with vessels of her era and class, reflecting the standard build quality associated with Japanese shipyards during the late 1980s.
