Expansion Opens at Trinity
The Port of Felixstowe officially opened the first phase of its Trinity Terminal expansion by adding six hectares of back-up land which will boost storage capacity by 6,500 teu. A further section of storage area will be opened early next year, ahead of the quay becoming fully operational by July 2004. When complete, an additional 270m of quay dredged to 15m alongside will extend deepwater berthing at Trinity to 900m.
‘We have had a lot of enquiries for a larger catamaran with more load capacity now that outboard engines develop up to 250hp, said Cheetah designer Sean Strevens. ‘These enquiries, usually from surveyors or divers, have always included a need to trailer the boat.’
