Ahead of the delivery of the first highly energy-efficient plug-in hybrid vessel in the third quarter of this year, AtoB@C Shipping today unveils the names of the first six vessels. The first vessel will be named Electramar, which provides fitting reference to vessel’s hybrid propulsion, battery pack and shore power connectivity. The second vessel, slated for delivery at the end of the year, will be named Stellamar.
“Chosen names reflect the environmental friendliness of the vessels and AtoB@C Shipping’s established tradition to name vessels with the -mar suffix”, says Frida Rowland, Director, Corporate Business Development at AtoB@C Shipping.
The names of the first six vessels in the order of construction are:
Electramar
Stellamar
Ecomar
Aquamar
Maximar
Terramar
The names are based on the naming competition arranged for the group’s personnel earlier last year. AtoB@C Shipping will reveal the names of the next six vessels at a later stage.
