Vlad, you might have read the UASC is bleeding money at an alarming rate. They had to come clean prior the takeover (oh sorry, "merger") by HAPAG. Basically, UASC bet big on megaships and is lose money big time. So delaying some deliveries is probably not a bad decision!

Hi Roy,
Thanks for your comment.
That's interesting info about the delayed delivery, I will run it with "my people"... :)
There are some vessels that are "stuck" in the yard, like this one:

That photo was from November, I have no idea what takes so long...

Then, there is this "unwanted child":

Hi Vlad,
They look like ready to go.
But what I understand is that they will only be delivered next year.
Very nice picture, as always.
Cheers,
Roy
