The Hapag-Lloyd container ship M/V Kiel Express arrived in Elliott Bay this afternoon. The Kiel Express has a capacity of 4,626 TEU's (twenty-foot equivalent units), or about 2,300 normal (40-foot) size shipping containers. The ship was delivered in 1991.
In a somewhat unusual display of inter-company cooperation, the ship was escorted to its berth by one Foss tug and one Crowley tug.
