Vehicle Carrier 2012 / 60154gt 6500 cars owned by Mitsui OSK Line, Japan. Enroute from Bremerhaven to Baltimore she landed a deep sea pilot at Brixham 21/12/2013 then sheltered overnight off Teignmouth.
The Solar Hybrid logo shows she was the world's first newly built hybrid vehicle carrier. Instead of using diesel generators in port, she produces zero emissions by using electric power from solar panels on her weatherdeck which is stored in lithium-ion batteries.
