Testing on a 134m, 11.153Dwt Container Feeder vessel
A test was performed on a 134m, 11.153Dwt Container Feeder vessel “Coneste”.
Within a 4 day period we have been fortunate to be able to test on the largest and the fastest vessels made available to us.
When the opportunity to test on a vessel steaming at high speeds presented itself, we had to go for it. Shipshave is very grateful to North Sea Container Line and Myklebusthaug Management making the good vessel and crew available to our test team.
The ship had drydocked approx. 3 years ago. Primary testing target was to observe performance in high speeds. The Shipshave ITCH was successfully tested up to 17 knots between Tananager and Husøy.

The ship had very recently undergone in water hull cleaning. Primary testing target was to observe performance in the barrier layer aft on a 200m long vessel. The Shipshave ITCH was tested successfully up to 12 knots between Åmøyfjorden and Sauda.
