GUTHORM MAERSK ex Marit Maersk

[macker911]

Just a quick question regarding the GUTHORM MAERSK renamed from Marit Maersk. Its has twice gone into shipyards in China in the last six months I was just wondering whether anyone has heard if it has had any major incident with this boat to make it go into a shipyard for a second time

Regards,

Don.

You never will hear something on that,, if Maersk protects something perfectly,,it,s when their ships have problems.  Nothing wrong with that,,,they are really pros on that

Marchen Maersk (9359014) has been renamed Gunde Maersk.

Maersk has a big retrofit program ongoing, whereby improvements are made on existing ships, such as new bulb stems, raising the superstructure (in order to carry an extra layer of boxes), fitting new propellers, that kind of stuff. Most of that work is done in Chinese yards.
