New Addition to Our Fleet: COE GISELA (ex Suntis)

July 2025


A Proven Vessel with a New Home – and a Familiar Mission

We are pleased to announce that since June 2025, the COE GISELA – formerly known as Suntis – has joined our fleet. Acquired directly from a dedicated owner-captain, the vessel brings with it a strong legacy of reliability, quality, and decades of coastal shipping experience.


Continuing a Trusted Contract – with Fresh Momentum

We are especially proud to continue operating the vessel under its existing wood transport contract, ensuring continuity and dependability for our partners. Since the takeover, five successful voyages have already been completed – a strong start that underlines the potential and capability of the GISELA.


Dry Dock in Szczecin – A Refresh for a Trusted Ship

To ensure the vessel is in top shape for the years ahead, COE GISELA is currently in dry dock in Szczecin. In addition to routine maintenance, she is receiving a fresh coat of paint – a visible symbol of her new chapter under our flag.

She is expected to return to active service by mid-August 2025. We are looking forward to seeing her back at sea, proudly sailing in renewed condition and with familiar dedication.


Welcome aboard, COE GISELA!
