Seamax Takes Delivery of 8,500 TEU Post-Panamax Containership Lloyd Don Carlos

Stamford, Connecticut – (October 4, 2017) —Seamax Capital Management LLC (“Seamax”) announced today that it took delivery of a 2006 built 8,500 TEU containership the Lloyd Don Carlos.

The Lloyd Don Carlos was acquired from German interests and was renamed the Seamax Stratford.  The delivery of the Seamax Stratford expands the Seamax operating fleet to twelve vessels with a total carrying capacity of approximately 100,000 TEU.

“This ship is particularly attractive for us as it has been enhanced with a modified bulbous bow and a re-sized propeller to improve its fuel efficiency,” said Cao Deambrosio and Ron Petrunoff, Managing Partners of Seamax Capital in a jointly issued statement.  “Charterers should be keen to take advantage of these features along with the upgrade we will perform to allow Panama Canal access.”
