St. Vincent tug surcharge dropped
The Caribbean Shipowners Association on Friday said the St. Vincent 'tug surcharge' has been dropped.
'Constructive, proactive discussions with the St. Vincent and the Grenadines Port Authority identified and implemented important cost savings for the carriers that sufficiently offset the cost of mandatory tug usage to make the withdrawal of the $200 per container surcharge feasible,' the association said.
Carriers included in the cost reduction are Bernuth, CMA CGM, Crowley, SeaFreight and Zim.
