Welcoming N/B M/V DELMAX66 – the largest Ultramax joins DryDel’s fleet
Delighted to announce the successful Naming & Delivery of M/V DELMAX66, built by Tsuneishi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd. .
DELMAX66 is the 3rd N/B vessel delivered to DryDel Shipping within 2026 & the 9th added to our fleet over the past 2 years, bringing the fleet average age down to an impressive 2.2 years.
Its name reflects the unique design of 66k or 66,565 tons dwt capacity.
This is the largest Ultramax vessel with a Panamax beam at 32.26m, a unique concept in the market - combining eco performance & efficiency with an additional 2,000 tons of cargo capacity. A brilliant idea & an outstanding ship!
This ceremony was made even more meaningful by the presence of Dr. Kelvin Pang & the students of Nanyang Technological University Singapore (NTU).
Including the next generation of shipping to real maritime experiences remains important to us, and we trust this first N/B delivery experience will stay with them throughout their careers!
Alongside the celebrations, a donation to local schools also took place, contributing to the local community that so warmly welcomed us & adding another meaningful dimension to the day.
We would like to thank Tsuneishi Heavy Industries (Cebu) Inc. and all our partners involved in this successful project for their trust & professionalism.
To our seafarers & the amazing DryDel Shipping team - thank you for making this possible.
Welcome aboard, M/V DELMAX66!
