On Saturday April 18th 2015 Terminal Container Ravenna (TCR) welcomed the maiden call of the m/v HS Discoverer, a 208 metres long ship built in 2004 and deployed by Mediterranean Shipping Company SA along the MSC B, a service connecting the East Mediterranean to the Adriatic.
Following berth, a total of 387 full containers were handled by TCR gangs with m/v HS Discoverer leaving Ravenna the same evening on April 18th, headed northbound.
Whilst operations were being carried out following schedule, Michele Pagano – head of TCR’s vessel operations department – boarded the ship to deliver the traditional customized crest to the captain and his crew, a ceremony to celebrate the ship’s maiden call in Ravenna.
