  The Easymax 2 launched successfully at Niestern Sander shipyard

  

  Royal Niestern Sander shipyard on October 29 held an official launching ceremony for the EasyMax 2 vessel (yard number 851). This new vessel is the successor of the award-winning Egbert Wagenborg, for Wagenborg and affiliated owners, the shipbuilder said in a press release.
  
  LIVE STREAM
  The launch of a new vessel is always a special moment. Although we do not allow visitors on the yard, many visitors from over the world witnessed this spectacular event by attending our live stream.
  
  GREENEST MULTIPURPOSE VESSEL
  With a cargo capacity of more than 14.000 tonnes and a hold capacity of 625.000 cbft, Niestern Sander was able to build a relatively large vessel without a major increase in overall dimensions. With an installed power of less than 3.000 kW, this ship has extremely low fuel consumption and due to her design, she has an excellent sea keeping performance. Our focus on Energy Efficiency resulted in over 60% savings in CO2- emissions compared to her peer group. We are proud the EasyMax is by far the greenest multipurpose vessel in her class.
