TOTE Maritime’s investment in LNG technology is making history. Built-in-America, the new Marlin Class vessels are the most environmentally-responsible containerships in the world.
Isla Bella
The first Marlin Vessel entered the Puerto Rico trade in November 2015. The vessel was named by Paola Dominguez, a member of the Puerto Rico Boys & Girls Club with whom TOTE Maritime partnered. Paola’s name recommendation was selected from hundreds of submissions from members of the Club. For having the winning entry, Paola will receive an educational scholarship.
The name Isla Bella translates to “beautiful island” in English and will serve as a reminder of the cultural and economic significance of the ships for future generations.
Perla Del Caribe
The second Marlin Class ship will enter the Puerto Rico trade in early 2016. The vessel was christened Perla Del Caribe which means “Pearl of the Caribbean” - another symbol of TOTE Maritime’s commitment to the islands.
