Thanks for the update Algowest on the Algoma Harvester and her Sea Trials. Any updates or information on the CWB Marquis and the CWB Strongfield? If you have any pictures of any of them, can you please post them to boatnerd sometime? Thanks again.

Algoma Harvester sea trials today.

That's great to hear and thanks for the heads up and update as well. Will be looking forward to seeing her sometime this year I hope up on the St. Clair River. Safe sailing to all of her crew once they depart China for the long trip and journey home to Canada!

Algoma harvester sea trials soon, She is expected to depart China sometime in May

Harvester:
IMO: 9613939
Call Sign: XJBK

CWB Marquis:
IMO: 9613953
Call Sign TBD

CWB Strongfield:
IMO: 9613941
Call Sign TBD

What is her callsign along with any of her sisterships? I already have the Equinox but, nothing on the others and I have all of the IMO Numbers for the Equinox ships as well. Thanks for the update and any information that you can provide as well.

Algoma Harvester has AIS on and perhaps will be departing soon? Sea trials perhaps? I don't recall hearing about her sea trials yet.

Algoma crews began training on March 3rd in Niagara and will leave for Nantong, China on March 8th. Barring any complications, the Harvester should head home to North America early April.
None of this is official.

Has there been any new updates or information on these two new classes of ships? The Algoma Harvester was just launched on December 26 and they had the keel laid for another vessel one for the CWB at about the same time. Yes, I have seen pictures of them from the shipyard website and nothing since then. Also, is there anything new on the CSL Bulkers recently launched in China? I have also seen the photos of their launch but, nothing new since that time. I see now that the IMO Numbers have been assigned to the new Equinox ships in China. Harvester is 9613939, CWB Marquis IMO is 9613953, CWB Strongfield is 9613941. Their self-unloaders also have their IMO Numbers as the Niagara is 9619311, while the Sault is 9619294 and the Conveyor is 9619268. There was also to be another self-unloader joining the group but, have not heard of anything further on that vessel. Anyone know the name of the mystery self-unloader not yet named for Algoma?
