I fear not. Rio Tinto have had a series of Post Panamax vessels built (RTM WEIPA, WAKMATHA, etc), UK flagged, with Aussie voices on at least a couple of them. The rest of the capacity on the Weipa-Gladstone bauxite run appears to be on chartered tonnage. We can probably expect the RIVER BOYNE to disappear soon too (August is the rumour).
Cheers,
