The Aphrodite Leader, a Pure Car & Truck Carrier (PCTC) is the first vessel under Wallem Ship Management (Wallen Group) to come under the Japanese Flag.
The Aphrodite Leader PCTC vessel completed the various inspections, audits and surveys, in accordance with the Japanese Flag requirements. The vessel then officially changed over to the Japanese Flag, upon receipt of the statutory certificates from the Japanese Government and Class NK.
Managing Japanese Flag vessels
This marks a positive milestone as Wallem is now one of just a few international ship managers, capable of managing Japanese Flag vessels. It is a clear testament to their strong safety culture, commitment to quality and efficient operations.
Wallem is dedicated to continue supporting their Japanese customers with technical and ship management services for a range of vessel types, including car carriers, tankers and container vessels.
Accredited for technical management
Wallem Ship Management is fully accredited to do full technical management for Japanese flag vessels with Class NK, including the provision of crew with fully compliant Wallem Professional seafarers, meeting the stringent Japanese flag requirements.
