SCX Shipping is in the process of sourcing an additional vessel to the fleet, expanding to 3 ships operating full-time. This expansion will allow the Moana Roa, the smallest vessel in the current fleet, to return to shorter routes, more suited to her size and speed. The new vessel will join the MV John Matchett on the long-haul routes doubling SCX Shippings capability.
Trials of potential vessels are underway with the MV Ken Koku, a 23,000DWT Bulk Carrier testing off the US West Coast.

Once a new vessel is selected it will need a new name, and a repaint before the official naming ceremony, and entry into revenus service with SCX Shipping. Suggestions for names can be submitted via our Discord server, or via email to admin@southerncharter.net
