Not so many changes in the ever declining reefer business that's true. But on the other hand - if you have stood at the banana pier in Guayaquil and seen the extraordinary speed of cargo handling with Union Purchase loading gear, you have an idea why nothing is changing.
For the mentioned Flexcon 21 design of Carmel Ecofresh and Carmel Bio-Top it has to be said that it was tailor-made for the many requirements of AGREXCO's service with fruit, flowers, plants and containers between Ashdod, Haifa, Marseille, Valencia and Genoa. And thus made it hardly usable elsewhere.
Anyway, a phantastic picture!

Good to see some comments from an insider in the trade. Thanks.

Many thanks Pieter!
And all the best for your new occupation as Webmaster!

The shape of Bananas may have changed more....

Probably. This very conservative approach to reefer vessel design is in stark contrast to, say, what the container vessel have gone through during the same period...

Some tried, but with little success...I don't see this ship taking over a full load of fish on the high seas..
