A.P. Moller Maersk has welcomed Alette Mærsk, the fourth large dual-fuel vessel in its fleet. The new ship measures 350 meters and has a container capacity of 16,000 TEU.
Alette Mærsk was christened today at the Port of Los Angeles by Chloe Kim, a Nike athlete, snowboarder, and two-time Olympic gold medalist.
Continuing the tradition of naming vessels after members of the Maersk founding family, the ship is named after Alette Mærsk Mc-Kinney Sørensen, the great-granddaughter of A.P. Møller, the founder of the A.P. Moller Group. This is the first time in the company's 120-year history that a vessel has been named Alette Mærsk.
