Imabari Shipbuilding hits 3,000-ship mark

This was achieved 13 years after delivering the 2,000th ship.

Japan’s Imabari Shipbuilding Group has marked its 3,000-ship milestone through the naming and delivery ceremony of the Cape Suzuran.

In a statement, Imabari said the 181,500 deadweight ton bulk carrier was for Kawasaki Kisen Kaisha, Ltd.

“Starting with our first steel ship, the Fuji Maru, in 1956, we built our 1,000th ship, the CHUBU MARU, in 1997, and our 2,000th ship, the CAPE LILY, in 2012. With the delivery of this ship, we have reached a new milestone of building our 3,000th ship,” the company said.
