Out with the old

摘要

Union transport group has sold their coaster Union Mars (2001/2,601gt), which has become Fri Sea registered in Nassau. She was Esprit until 2004, but now Kopervik Ship Management of Norway will operate her. She will be replaced in the Union Group fleet by a newbuilding, Union Gold (2010/1,900gt), which was launched on 10 September 2009 at the Ceske Lodonice AS yard.rnAnother interesting change concerns the sand dredger Hydra, built in 1975 as the coaster Edina.
