RB5150 dwt mini bulker MV Elisabeth K is delivered to Alstership from Hamburg. She is the 2nd ship for Alstership in the 5150 dwt Bodewes Eco Trader series, containing a distinctive energy-saving bow. The stem is straight with an upper slope, making her slice easily through the waves facing less resistance. The double hull design is characterized by the bulbless straight bow, with an almost vertical stem profile. Combining these ship features, results in improved seagoing characteriztics. After a successful sea trial on 10th March 2021, she was handed over.
