Nadja Nitschke, First Mate of Vega shares why she joined Sailcargo.

OCB’s new travel series “Roll With Nature” features our green shipyard and tells how our two companies are working together towards a cleaner future by combining sustainable technologies with quality craftsmanship.

SAILCARGO INC. has purchased the cargo vessel S/V Vega Gamleby. Vega will sail approximately 148 cubic metres (or 82 tons) of green coffee beans and other dry goods between Colombia and the United States. The Swedish ship will commence her delivery voyage across the Atlantic Ocean in mid-May, 2022. The first cargo will be coffee beans, transported for Canadian coffee importer Café William and will sail in the fourth quarter of 2022.

SAILCARGO INC. undergoes corporate restructuring to promote new projects and increase viability. The new proposed restructure will direct all future investment through SAILCARGO INC., as opposed to issuing shares in Ceiba Inversiones Maritimas S.A or similar companies. This creates an expansive portfolio that ensures the longevity of different projects and guarantees revenue streams for investors.

Ambassadors to Costa Rica and Canada visited the SAILCARGO INC. shipyard to congratulate the company on its progress towards popularizing zero emission shipping.

SAILCARGO is proud to be partnering with Café William to deliver the first zero emission sailing cargo ship which will transport coffee beans from South America to Café William’s roasting plant in Ontario, Canada. Café William is a Quebec roaster focused on the production of organic and fair trade coffees.

A semi-formal update about the recent progress at the yard, in which several processes are examined: Alaskan chainsaw mill, assembling frames, lofting half and cant frames, and drilling some of the longest holes of the ship.
