Technical Specifications
Overview
MV Harambee was a German-built general cargo ship, initially ordered as the Reg IV. Bought while under construction by a different company, she was launched in 1953 and served with the German Merchant Navy under the name Belgrano, making voyages to South America until 1966. She was sold to an African company, renamed Harambee, and served for another thirteen years, before being sold once more, renamed Arambee, and scrapped in Taiwan shortly afterwards.
Composite Risk
Multiple adverse factors, or a hard ship-specific signal, lift this hull above the fleet norm.
A coverage-weighted blend of the single component we could read for this hull; the weights renormalise over only the components present, so a thin read is never inflated and a hull is never credited a “safe 0” for a signal it has no row for. This headline is flagged low-confidence (a thin or structural-only read) and should not be treated as a verdict. Higher means riskier. Derived in-house from government-open port-State-control, flag, sanctions and our own vessel data; weight it by the coverage above.
Commercial
Price it in the Route Planner between any two commercial ports: ballast and laden legs, two fuels at live bunker prices, port and canal costs, the weather on the way, and the TCE set against the market.
