The Finnish based RoRo ship owner Godby Shipping Ab has announced that the French liner company CMA CGM has time chartered its roro vessel “Midas” until December 2026.
The vessel “Midas” will before starting the charter go through her class renewal docking in Turkey, and after her dry docking the ship will replace the Godby owned “Mimer” in the Caribbean.
Mv “Mimer” will go for her class renewal docking and is then open for new adventures. As Godby mentions, the dry docking of the vessels will prolong their lifetime with about 10 years.
The two ships “Mimer” and “Midas” have been running the Leeward Island traffic for CMA CGM continuously since April 2012.
The line is an inter-Caribbean feeder service connecting CMA CGM ocean services with several smaller Caribbean destinations.
The main ports are Point A Pitre, Philipsburg, San Juan, Charlotte Amalie, Christiansted, Road Town, Gustavia and Basseterre.
The cargo carried is mainly containers, trailers and other roro units loaded with consumer goods and industrial products.
