CMA CGM’s new 365 meter-long, 52.1 meter (20 containers) wide fleet flagship, the Cristophe Colomb was welcomed on Friday the 11th to the Port of Rotterdam on its maiden voyage from Asia.   The Christophe Colomb joins the weekly 10-vessel AE7 service string, calling APM Terminals Rotterdam, operated in partnership with Maersk Line between China and Europe.   Delivered on November 10 from the Daewoo Shipbuilding and Marine Engineering Company of South Korea, the Christophe Colomb and its planned sister vessels have been designed for maximum fuel efficiency with electronically controlled engines- and can be recognised by the superstructure location in the front of the vessel, to maximize load capacity.   Further, APM Terminals Rotterdam welcomed the first call of the United Arab Shipping Company’s vessel to the facility when the 6800 TEU Mayssan called on her voyage of the weekly AEC2 Asia Europe Container Service.   Cargonews Asia
