Vessel Description

AUTHENTICITY is a small general cargo vessel built in 1977, operating under the Tanzanian flag with Zanzibar registration. As a vessel of her era, she represents a class of aging coastal freighters common to East African waters. Her relatively shallow draft and modest dimensions make her suited for operations in smaller regional ports along the East African coastline. The vessel carries general cargo typical of intra-regional trade in the Western Indian Ocean basin.
