Container vessel Charlotte Borchard photographed in Salerno on 8 June 2012. 

She entered port in the late afternoon taking the berth vacated by Ibrahim Dede before unloading / loading and leaving port in just a few hours. I think that the photograph above is one of my better pictures, I seem to have the angle just right and the sun was on the right side for once. 

Built by Sietas in Neuenfelde, Germany in 2004 as Yard Number 1142 she is 134m long with a 22.5m beam and 8.70m maximum draught.

Maximum TEU = 868.

Powered by a MAK 9M43 (8,400kW) engine she has a maximum speed of 18.5 Knots.


GT = 9962, NT = DWT = 11,200, NT = 14,278.


The vessel has had a number of names in the past including Ruth Borchard (2006 & 2009) and Allegro (2007).

She is operated by Borchard Lines and is one of 10 dedicated container vessels in the fleet. The Borchard Group operates throughout Europe and the Mediterranean and has been operating since 1933.

    My interest in ships and the sea started back in 2006 when I worked for a couple of years  on the banks of the River Mersey. I have since been on a couple of cruises around the Med and in the Far East and have started to take more interest in researching and photographing some of the ships and other vessels seen on my travels.
