The newly inked Crown 63 FORWARD bulk carriers are the fourth-generation models of the Crown 63 series. This vessel model has closely followed the design philosophy of cargo adaptability and charter friendliness of the Crown series and upgraded cargo hold capacity, deck load capacity, and fuel consumption based on the delivery record of over 150 third-generation ships, operational data from nearly 300 voyages, and feedback from numerous shipowners.

These enhancements have further improved vessel performance and conformed to green shipping development concepts.

During the past years, SUMEC Marine has consistently strengthened its brand building, upgraded its products in alignment with green and intelligent development trends, and enhanced the market competitiveness of its medium-sized bulk carriers worldwide.

In the years ahead, the corporation will focus on the manufacturing of specialized machinery, sharpen brand strengths in terms of market segments, build up full-industry chain synergy, and improve and expand the green business model driven by the dual engines of shipbuilding and shipping.
