Frachtschiffe - Niederlande: Bücher - Geschichte und Reedereien

Classic Dutch-Built Coasters

Traditionell waren Küstenschiffe im Familienbesitz und wurden zusammen mit dem Wissen um ihren Betrieb und die erfolgreiche Schifffahrt von Generation zu Generation weitergegeben. Die neue Generation bestand aus Männern, die die Hochseeschifffahrt verlassen hatten und sich ein Küstenschiff kauften, oder aus ehemaligen Besatzungsmitgliedern, die ein eigenes Schiff besitzen wollten. Im Laufe der 1960er-Jahre verschärfte sich der Wettbewerb in der Küstenschifffahrt, und die Schiffe wurden größer, um mehr Fracht transportieren zu können.

Alle in diesem Farbfotoalbum abgebildeten Schiffe wurden in den Niederlanden gebaut, fuhren aber nicht alle unter niederländischer Flagge. Die Blütezeit der niederländischen Küstenschiffe lag in den frühen 1960er-Jahren, als über 1000 Schiffe im Einsatz waren.

Nederlandse koopvaardijschepen in beeld (deel 15) - SeaTrade (2) - Pool- en managementschepen

In the Seatrade Reefer Pool and the affiliated Hamburg Reefer Pool, GreenSea Pool and the United Reefers Pool (Vroon and Sun Group) acquired in 2005, or (also) in management at Seatrade Groningen, hundreds of reefer vessels have sailed. In some of these, Seatrade had/has a financial interest or were/are fully owned and are included in part 13 of this series.

The present booklet shows all reefers, (largely) owned by third parties or chartered from third parties in the long term, sailing in the aforementioned pools, whether or not also under technical and nautical management at Seatrade Groningen.
For the sake of completeness, the reefers that Seatrade itself purchased after the publication of the first booklet are also included.

Coasters op kaarten - Een maritieme groet

As long as postcards have been issued, ports and ships have been attractive subjects to send as greetings. Not least by the sailor himself who wanted to let his family or loved one know where he was. Preferably with a card showing the mooring of his ship. That is why you can find a cross on many old maps: here we lie.

A colourful collection of postcards from all over the world creates a wonderful picture of Dutch coastal shipping in the previous century. A Dutch coastal ship plays a role in almost every image.
Harbours that have almost been forgotten are brought into the spotlight. The peace of moored ships and the hustle and bustle of loading and unloading alternate.

Hundreds of unique postcards make "Coasters on Cards" a book that you have to experience...

Nederlandse koopvaardijschepen in beeld (deel 13) - Seatrade

This second special edition in the series is entirely devoted to Seatrade and Dammers & Van der Heide. The Shipping Office 'Groningen', founded in 1951 by five Groningen shipowners - since 1973 Seatrade Groningen - started focusing on refrigerated/freezer shipping in 1962 and grew explosively.
The takeover of Dammers & Van der Heide in 1989 and the reefer activities of Vroon in 2005 strengthened Seatrade's position to such an extent that the company has grown into the largest refrigerated shipping company in the world.

Included are all refrigerated vessels that are (co-)owned (or have been) by Seatrade and Dammers or their shareholders, as well as purchased and resold to third parties, sailing in the Seatrade Pool and managed by Triton Schiffahrt or Thien & Heyenga. Their reefers sailing under foreign flags are also included.

In "Nederlandse Koopvaardijschepen in beeld" the most beautiful photo material is used to highlight the ships that were part of the fleets of the Dutch shipping companies from 1945 onwards. The often nostalgic images, provided with an explanation, are preceded by a short description of the shipping companies, whose ships are shown in the booklet.

Nederlandse koopvaardijschepen in beeld (deel 7) - Koelvaart

In "Nederlandse Koopvaardijschepen in beeld" the ships that were part of the fleets of the Dutch shipping companies from 1945 onwards are brought into the spotlight using the most beautiful photographic material. The often nostalgic images, provided with an explanation, are preceded by a short description of the shipping companies, whose ships are shown in the booklet.

Part 7 is the first of two planned publications on refrigerated shipping. In international refrigerated/freezer shipping, the Netherlands played a relatively modest role for a long time, given the prominent position that specialized shipping companies in, for example, Germany, France and the Scandinavian countries have always occupied.
This only changed in the eighties, mainly because the Scheepvaartkantoor Groningen - since 1973 Seatrade Groningen - built up a large fleet, partly by including ships from other, also foreign, shipping companies in the "Seatrade pool".

The most important Dutch shipping companies with reefer ships were - besides Seatrade - Anthony Veder, Pinkster, Dammers & van der Heide, Vroon and Jaczon. Several foreign companies also brought several ships under the Dutch and Netherlands Antilles flag, such as the Caraïbische Scheepvaart Maatschappij (United Fruit), Primlaks and the Italian GF Group.

This booklet describes the shipping companies and shipping lines that have had reefer ships in their fleet since 1945, with the exception of Dammers & van der Heide and Seatrade. A special edition will be dedicated to these large shipping companies, which merged in 1989.
