Coastal Shipping Companies??

[Dierk Bauer]

Hi all, what do you think about a section for Coastal Shipping Companies, past and present, like Arklow Shipping, Otto A. M?ller, Wilson Shipping etc ??

[malc hooley]

sounds good Dierk then people can look at vessels by company should be good

Best regards Malc

Coastal Shipping Companies??

Hi Malc, thank you very much for your reply. We had this section on Coasters-remembered before the "big crash", if I remember correctly...
Would be good, if not only the ships can be viewed, but the company history or personal experience as well, concerning companies and their ships......

If ships have been posted already, they could be copied accordingly, leaving the old postings intact, could be wise, as some replies are showing them under their new name(s).... and everything will be shown in their proper places

What do you think?? This question isn`t meant only for Malc

Hi Dierk

Good idea you?ve suggested my friend....
There are going to be plenty of danish coaster-companies that I would like to see in this section...
Of course, as you know, the most obvious one for me will be the "Bres-Line" or Rederiet Nielsen & Bresling in, now, Faaborg on Fyn in Dk, will be my very first Suggestion... I think, as I remember it, I had started the work on the late CR before her second "breakdown" so I hope I?ve saved some of the work from back then...
Regards from Kent

[Unicon, Sg- Gareth R.I.P.]

Hi Dierk - good idea, Kent's right there are lots of Danish companies as well, Juhl&Erhorn, Mortensen&Lange, Knud I Larsen,H C Grube, Baltimar, Trigon, although they all used to trade world-wide as well even with their 'Ringkobing types'(640dwcc-40000' - 2 x 5t w/d's) but they were designed for that trade as well, I'll think of some more when the brain finally gets on to boost Gareth

Coastal Shipping Companies??

Good afternoon Gareth, thank you very much for your reply....

we`ve created the section "Coastal Shipping Companies" in the meantime, latest addition in the "Coasters" section, but only a few got their own "berth" in this section, while others are still in the "Other Companies".....
see also http://www.coasters-remembered.net/s...ead.php?t=3777

It was intended as a test, to show you how it would be

If I understood correctly, you like this to remain and not deleted again

But like to know now, if it is better to create a section for the companies of each country of or leave it like it is. As you pointed out, there are a lot of danish companies as well as from other countries. Would maybe a bit difficult to find all of them again, if they`re all together..... afterwards

Thanks in advance
Tsch?ss and all best

Coastal Shipping Companies??

Hi all,
we would like your opinion
We got now quite a few shipping companies in this section. But as the showing of the threads is in chronical order, or by clicking on the icon "Thread" on the left side of the toolbar, in alphabetical order, it is now a "mixture" of shipping companies of diverse countries. We can divide it according to the nationality or parts of Europe, like Scandianvian, United Kingdom- and Ireland companies etc..

Thank you very much in advance
Dierk

Coastal Shipping Companies

Hi all,
we got a lot of Coastal Shipping Companies in the new section, but most are from Britain, Denmark and Germany

Am wondering if YOU like to see too companies from the Netherlands, France, Italy, Sweden, Norway or other countries, which are "under represented"

Sometimes wondering too, if it was a good idea, causing a lot of work in order to enable everybody to see the ships of one company, as well as their histories, stories and shiplist all together in one place....?

Any comments or suggestions are more than appreciated

Thank you very much in advance
Tsch?ss and all the best

Hi Dierk,Personally,I suggest the following importent shipowners fleets are to be included in the list/s,-for the time being:-

U.K.:
JAMES FISHER,Barrow (ships names ended with ----FISHER,ie LEVEN FISHER etc.)
...............
HOLLAND:
CAREBEKA,Groningen & Rotterdam (ships names started with CAREBEKA,ie CAREBEKA 1 etc.)

SPLIETHOFF,Amsterdam (ships names ended with---GRACHT ie KEIZERGRACHT, or ----BEEK,ie SAMBEEK.)

WIJNNE & BARENDS,Delfzijl (ships named after girls,ie CLARISSA,CLAUDIA etc.)-ships recently added a LADY suffix.
.............................
NORWAY:
FRED OLSEN,Oslo,(many ships names started with the letter B,ie BRUSE ,BURE, etc)
.....................

* Many Dutch and German owners managed additional ships on behalf of smaller concerns or 'captain owners',therefore in their case the naming of the vessels may be different to those stated (it's a minefield !!) as indeed will be the colours of the hull and funnel .


Cheers,Rick

[coasterspotter]

Good idea Dierk. Although personally i always tend to search by ships name.

coastal shipping companies

dierk I think this would be a smashing idea skiboo bob angus

[Dierk Bauer]

Hi Bob,
I believe that it could be as interesting as the section "Ships I`ve sailed on", but will be a task which can`t be "tackled" only by a few members ....
and it will take "ages" to get it done, but am "only" 62

As a suggestion Dierk, Past and Present Day. Would add to the Heading. Especially since most coastal companies in the UK have disappeared.

[Dierk Bauer]

Good morning Ron,
thank you very much for your suggestion. When I created the sub-forum for Maersk, added in the title "The early days" because they started too with coastal shipping, like some other companies, who are trading "Deep-sea" today too, Peter D?hle at Hamburg is a good example

Will heed your advise

[Dierk Bauer]

Maersk and other companies

Hi all, am sorry that I started this discussion in the Chatbox, should be put in here, because it concerns us all and your opinion is important .....

Quote
Maersk ships of Bangsbo Museum now on the agenda....bigger ships better to berth only in section "Other Vessels not only..." and not in "Maersk the early days" ?? and when do the early days end guess Triple E boxships don`t fit, while smaller ones, like Off-shore supply ships do, as they are active in Coastal waters....

Reply from Jan Hendrik:
Dierk/Kent, it might be an idea to subdivide Maersk into foll groups: bulkers, tankers (incl chem.tankers), container, cargo, offshore supply and tugs, other offshore constructions.

Maersk: Also "the early days" where do we stop, which year?

Kosangas has a separate mention, fine, but what abt after JL took them over? Should we continue posting under Kosangas or JL?
