The training vessel Prinses Beatrix for inland shipping deckhands and skippers will get her own berth at the harbour of the ‘Binnenvaartmuseum’ (Inland Shipping Museum) in the Dutch city of Dordrecht.

The first of 40 inland waterway barges that are being built by Concordia Damen has been launched at the casco yard in Serbia. Concordia Damen signed the contract for the environmentally friendly vessels late last year.

Concordia Damen has signed a historic contract with Lenten Scheepvaart. The contract, signed on 18th March by Harm Lenten and Concordia Damen CEO Chris Kornet, is for the construction of the first ever inland waterway vessel to run on hydrogen.
