TAIWAN's Yang Ming will add another 11,000-TEU ship named YM Topmost, which chartered from Shoei Kisen Kaisha and built by Imabari Shipbuilding Co, reports Jacksonville's Container News.
YM Topmost will join THE Alliance's Transpacific service PS6 on September 24 with the following port rotation: Qingdao, Ningbo, Busan, Los Angeles, Oakland, Kobe and back to Qingdao.
To further strengthen Yang Ming's mid- to long-term operational efficiency, the company ordered a total of fourteen 11,000 TEU newbuildings through long-term charter agreements with shipowners.
YM Topmost is the seventh in the series and will be delivered on September 22, while the Taiwanese liner operator started taking delivery of these new vessels in 2020.
This type of vessel has a nominal capacity of 11,860 TEU and is equipped with 1,000 reefer plugs. With a length of 333.9 metres, a width of 48.4 metres, a draft of 16 metres, these vessels are designed to cruise at 23 knots.
The containerships incorporate various environmental features including scrubbers, water ballast treatment plant and alternative marine power system.
