The three sisters FINNWOOD, FINNFIGHTER and FINNPINE, all managed by Rederi AB Transatlantic of Helsingborg/Sweden, will be lengthened by a 20 m-section, which will increase their capacity by 20% to 18.500 tons.
Conversion will start in week 02/2006 at Blohm & Voss Repairs of Hamburg  (Finnwood), followed by Finnfighter during February and finally Finnpine in March.
After completion vessels shall continue trading for Abitibi Consolidated, carrying paperproducts from Canada to UK/Continent ports.
