Description:
Delivered by N.V. Boelwerf S.A. (yd # 14394) at Temse as the 52,682gt, 2,730 teu container ship Ortelius in October 1978 to CMB. Several name changes followed until she was renamed Aberdeen Bay for a short charter to P&O Containers. In 1993 she became Maersk Hamburg, then DAL Kalahari and Kalahari before almost inevitably ending up with MSC as MSC Manu. She gave them 4 years of service before being sold to Indian breakers in 2009.
