First "Baltic Max" (Type 178) containership by Sietas Shipyard

[Cornelia Klier]

Some of you might have obtained the information about Sietas' new type 178 already somewhere, for those who have not, a bit of a sum up in English can be found here:

However, I was able to see the first ship of this series at Maasvlakte (port of Rotterdam) last weekend, it's quite an impressive ship.
Since I found it as well interesting, I'd like not only to share this with you, but point directly to this here:

Hi Cornelia,
as far as I know is "HEINRICH EHLER" chartered by UNIFEEDER and has nothing to do with J.R. Shipping, Harlingen ??
The "EMOTION" is also a nearly Baltic Max, but built at Peene Shipyard, Wolgast
I took some fotos of the Heinrich Ehler on her maiden voyage returnig from the baltics westbound on 01-09-08, fotos are to be seen at Shipspotting.
Rgds.

Yes, I know that the H. E. is chartered by Unifeeder. I was actually looking on google whether there was any site in English that does give any info on the type of ship "Baltic Max" and the enlarged types 168, but the only site where such info was to be found, is on JR shipping's website.

I as well did never state that the ship has anything to do with JR shipping, only that some info can be read on this site.
