ROLLDOCK SUN

Rolldock SunToday we have the Rolldock Sun (IMO: 9393981, Port of Registry: Rotterdam) featuring as the Ship of the Day. The Rolldock Sun is a heavy load vessel that combines float-in/float-out, roll-on/roll-off and lift-on/lift-off capabilities with which the vessel serves a niche market. The ship is equipped with two cranes that is able to lift 700 tons in tandem. The RoRo capacity is 4000 tons where the vessel is capable of varying the height of the load deck in six different heights. Due to this capability the vessel is able to adapt to every quay in the world. The vessel was built at Larsen & Toubro, India and delivered in 2010. She is owned by Rolldock B.V., the Netherlands.

The Rolldock Sun arrived at Damen shipyard, Wiltonhaven, Rotterdam this morning from Karachi, Pakistan.
