Summary edit

Description

IMO: 9417141 MMSI: 218108000 Call Sign: DGFN2 Flag: Germany (DE) AIS Type: Cargo Gross Tonnage: 12968 Deadweight: 10020 t Length × Breadth: 131m × 24m Year Built: 2010

The E-Ship 1 is a RoLo cargo ship that made its first voyage with cargo in August 2010. The ship is owned by the third-largest wind turbine manufacturer, Germany's Enercon GmbH. It is used to transport wind turbine components. The E-Ship 1 is a Flettner ship: four large rotorsails that rise from its deck are rotated via a mechanical linkage to the ship's propellers. The sails, or Flettner rotors, aid the ship's propulsion by means of the Magnus effect – the perpendicular force that is exerted on a spinning body moving through a fluid stream.
