Bulk Carrier Bloodline News

One of the most respected names in the development of vessel designs suited to volume demand and series production, and still widely identified with the 'Liberty' ship replacement era, GTR Campbell Marine Consultants has fostered new links with the industry in China. The recent opening of new headquarters for the Canadian firm and its associated company Algoship Designers in Nassau, Bahamas, was accompanied by a first deal for the latest addition to its standard ship portfolio, a 700-dwt inter-island ferry. While the bulk carrier bloodline is perpetuated in a host of new projects involving Chinese and South Korean yards, the extension of the GTR Campbell concept to the ferry domain involves a combined passenger and cargo carrier dubbed the Fiesta type.
