Live tracking and data notes

The live ship tracker on this page provides a map-based AIS view for MSC BRIDGEPORT through the configured external tracking provider. AIS information can be delayed, incomplete or temporarily unavailable because reception and provider coverage vary by area and vessel. The map is intended for general vessel discovery and position context and must not be used for navigation or safety-critical decisions.

Additional profile sections appear only when suitable source records are available, including ownership and management, engine or classification information, surveys, inspections, casualties, and sale or demolition events. Missing fields are not filled with invented values, so some modules may be absent when the underlying data snapshot does not contain sufficient evidence. The profile is compiled from controlled source records maintained for Ship-Tracker.org and may change as newer verified data becomes available.

Reported price: USD 60.000 million

Note: Mediterranean Shipping Co (MSC) has acquired five more neo-panamax container ships from US tonnage provider Seamax Capital Management. The liner giant is buying the vessels from funds managed by Seamax in a deal worth at least $300m, according to market sources. They are the 8,463-teu Seamax New Haven (built 2005), 8,208-teu Seamax Fairfield (built 2006), 8,690-teu Seamax Greenwich (built 2004) and 8,383-teu Seamax Darien and Seamax Bridgeport (both built 2003). The average price of each vessel is reported to be around $60m, although that reflects the current charter rates with MSC through to 2024 and 2025, according to Braemar ACM Shipbroking.
