The KELLY C is a highly efficient, gearless general cargo ship designed to seamlessly bridge coastal and short-sea shipping routes across Europe. Built in 2010 by China's Jiangsu Yangzijiang Shipbuilding, this 106-metre vessel balances a compact physical footprint with a robust 6,250 deadweight tonnage capacity, making it ideal for navigating restricted waterways while maximizing payload. Operating under the Portuguese flag for the prominent British fleet manager Carisbrooke Shipping, it features a single hold with a high-capacity box configuration. This structural design enables the flexible, secure transport of bulk commodities, heavy steel coils, timber, and containerised freight alike. It serves as a dependable backbone for regional supply chains by delivering continuous, bulk logistics through varying maritime conditions.
