SeaLand, the Intra-Americas regional ocean carrier arm of Denmark’s Maersk Line, is to start a new service linking Mexico’s Atlantic coast with ports in the north east of the US. The weekly SeaLand Atlantico service will use two vessels of about 1,300 TEU capacity. According to the carrier’s management, it will offer a highly competitive alternative to truck and rail-based links. Currently, these two transport modes are estimated to account for 95% of cargo movements.

Port Everglades’ Florida International Terminal (FIT) will be the first and last US calls for SeaLand and APL’s North American Express Service (NAE/ACX) to Latin America beginning 27th August

Maersk Line has announced the formation of a regional container shipping company, SeaLand, dedicated to the intra-Americas market

How fast is fast enough? Will new propulsions systems make it easier to introduce still bigger ships? And what is the scope for “fast ships”?

ECT is claiming damages of US$180 mill (Dfl 420 mill) plus interest from Sealand, for breaching the 25-year contract which underpinned its development of the DSL automated terminal. The contract is valid until 2013
