HEROIC LEADER against its type
Built in 2011, it is 3 years newer than the median vehicle carrier on this register, which was built in 2008 (595 vessels with a known build year). At 58,767 gross tonnage it is smaller than 51% of the other 571 vehicle carriers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 73 vehicle carriers here under the Bahamas flag, 10.2% of the 713 on the register. The same builder is recorded for 983 other vessels here, 41 of them vehicle carriers. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.
Its 2,489 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 65% below the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 335.7 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 646 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 4.9% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 6 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2018 (31,330 t) and the lowest 2025 (2,489 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 48 in 2019 to 45 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 8 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 8 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 192 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 45th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 48.7.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 51,074,902 tonne-miles over 7,414 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 92.1% lower than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2020, 2023, so the series has gaps.
From 2024 to 2025, emissions fell 84.8% while distance sailed fell 84.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 4.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
