Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

We have to move around.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

But all things considered,

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

People have been really receptive.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

I think the markets understood the challenges.

Project Cargo Professionals

Our clients have understood, you've gotta sail around the Cape, there's gonna be a different cost, there's gonna be a different time schedule.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

People have been okay about that.

Project Cargo Professionals

And of course, there's the other factor, which is, let's just say you use a general cargo vessel to shift something that needs gear.

And you go to a port that isn't serviced with cranes, shore cranes.

We recently did some work in Belém.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

where the ship before us was delayed because they were waiting for a shore crane to come in.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

And it was not easy to get the shore crane to Belem.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

So they were delayed, delayed, delayed, cost, cost, cost, cost, cost, plus bringing the crane down, plus bringing.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

So there are all these factors to consider.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

And you're absolutely right.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

I think there is going to be a lot of cannibalization by general cargo vessels.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

But I actually think that shippers will need to make their calculations, as you were saying before, and look at all the variables and say, best case scenario, worst case scenario, mid-case scenario.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

How much could this cost me either way?

Project Cargo Professionals

And these are factors that keep Hank up at night because he ultimately needs to push the button on one solution.

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

And it's, I mean, Henk, you'll say, because I've not been your side of it, right?

Project Cargo Professionals
2025 in Review, 2026 Ahead | The Project Cargo Professionals Christmas Special

We're the other side of it.
