Large orderbooks for large container ships – what does it mean for the feeder market? A look at today's container orderbooks shows that most of the new vessels entering the market over the next few years will be large and ultra-large container ships, ordered primarily by the major liner operators. But what will this mean for the feeder segment? Will larger vessels replace smaller ones, or will they create new trade patterns that increase demand for feeder services? With the average age of the global feeder fleet continuing to rise, there are strong arguments for newbuildings. At the same time, newbuilding prices remain exceptionally high. For the time being, this stalemate continues to support the value of existing vessels—provided they are technically sound, properly maintained, and backed by #ShipManagement that is able to respond quickly and effectively to #Claims. A dedicated #Liquidity reserve through #DeductibleBuyback for #HullAndMachinery provides exactly the financial flexibility needed to act without delay.
