MORNING CLASSIC against its type

Built in 2013, it is 5 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. Its MRV returns name it MORNING CLASSIC for 2018 and RCC CLASSIC for 2019–2025. The returns for 2018–2025 all give Nassau as port of registry.

Its 8,304 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 17% above the median of 7,074 t among the 514 vehicle carriers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 342.5 kg CO₂, 11% above the type median of 309.1 kg. It logged 1,688 hours at sea against a median of 1,639 hours for its type that year. 2.4% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for vehicle carriers was 3.1%. Across 8 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2021 (16,423 t) and the lowest 2018 (2,213 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 46 in 2019 to 34 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 6 sister ships listed below with a 2025 return, 5 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025

Position 146 of 423 qualifying vehicle carriers by EEOI, at the 34th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 51.7; this vessel reported 43.9.

EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 189,281,742 tonne-miles over 24,247 nautical miles.

Reported CO₂ by year

Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 275.3% higher than in 2018, for EU/EEA voyages only.

From 2024 to 2025, emissions rose 18.5% while distance sailed rose 15.1%and CO₂ per nautical mile rose 3.0%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
