With the slow demise of the traditional reefer fleet, I'm surprised there aren't more ships like this around.

Thanks n3lson. I watched a YouTube vid on this design earlier. I see its automated pallet system can also handle cars. Very clever and versatile design.

Thanks, MJ Chow & Hugh Pines, for the interest in my photos.
She has also a Sister ship MAGELLAN STRAIT, uploaded a few days ago.

Such an odd design for a reefer. But I like it! Can she carry pallets as well?

At the first look at her, I thought she's ex-cable ship converted.
