It was constructed at the yard's Hiroshima Works (Innoshima). The Mount Penteli is the largest Hitachi Zosen-developed Panamax type capable of sailing through the Panama Canal. The ship can carry various kinds of freight, including grain, ore and coal. Since grain can be taken on the upper wing tanks, the ship's carrying capacity can be increased. The new vessel is powered by a Hitachi- Sulzer 6RND 76M diesel with an improved fuel injection system. This engine, in com- bination with the "derating" method for control of maximum engine output, is re- ported to be very fuel efficient. nn^nris mmmmm L-V Marine Consultants Can Find The Key Personnel You Need!
