Grande entrance Grimaldi con-ro arrives
GRIMALDI di Navigazione has taken delivery of con-ro vessel Grande Angola, the first of a new series of seven identical units built by Croatia’s Brodogradiliste Uljanik shipyard in Pula, writes Eric Houri. Grande Angola, pictured in the port of Le Havre on its maiden voyage, is scheduled to join Grimaldi’s Europe-West Africa Southern Express service. The delivery of the six remaining sisterships will stretch through to the end of 2010. The second unit, Grande Ghana, is scheduled to be handed over in February 2009. Eric Houri
