Ro-ro vessels
On a ro-ro route, the schedule is the product.
Where we put the emphasis
- Freight customers plan their supply chains around the sailing times, and we manage the ship so she keeps them.
- Ramps, doors and lashings are not deck fittings, they are the route itself. A ramp failure cancels sailings, so we maintain them as critical machinery.
- Car decks are a fire risk that has grown with EV cargo. Detection, drenching and crew drills get constant attention.
- Frequent port calls mean constant ballast and stability work. It has to be routine, and done right every time.
Questions we typically ask
- 01What does the service pattern look like: calls per week, and what turnaround have you promised the freight customers?
- 02Tell us about the ramps and doors: condition, maintenance history, any recurring faults?
- 03Are you carrying EVs or dangerous goods, and have the fire systems been upgraded to match?
- 04Is the cargo securing manual actually followed on a busy turnaround? What lashing gear is on board?
- 05Does she carry passengers as well, which brings passenger-ship rules into scope?
- 06What punctuality is expected on the route, and what does a missed sailing cost you?
