more ecient than their predecessors. The container capacity is more than doubled at 3,800 TEUs, plus 28,900 square meters of RORO space and a car capacity of 1,300+ vehicles. The RORO ramps are wider and shallower and the RORO decks are higher (up to 7.4 meters) with fewer columns, enabling much easier loading and discharge of oversized cargo. Emissions per TEU are reduced by 65%. The fleet continues to employ ACL’s specially designed container cell-guides on deck. This unique feature allows the Company to extend its enviable 50-plus year record of ACL ships never losing a container over the side. All containers on deck are secured in a cell guide racking system—always secure and locked in place despite the weather on the North Atlantic. ACL’s fleet of five G4 vessels dramatically improves the Company’s competitiveness on the North Atlantic. The G4s demonstrate to our customers that our Parent Company, the Grimaldi Group, continues to do things dierently than all of its competitors. We employ unique ships, go to unique ports and carry cargo that others cannot carry. Since 1967, ACL has been a specialized transatlantic carrier of containers, project and oversized cargo, heavy equipment and
