Seaboard buys roll-on/roll-off ship
Seaboard Marine purchased for an undisclosed price Thursday the roll-on/roll-off vessel “Seaboard Spirit.” The shipping line has chartered the vessel from shipowner Sirius for the last six years, for use in the U.S./Bahamian trade.
The “Seaboard Spirit” can carry more than 45 trailers and can be converted to carry over more than containers. The vessel sails three times per week between Miami and Nassau and is designed for a shallow draft so that it can comfortably dock at Seaboard’s exclusive terminal east of downtown Nassau.
