MV Elysee is a Baltic Max feeder vessel which has room for 1,404 20-feet (TEU) containers, including 300 refrigerator containers. The vessel, built by the German Sietas Werft yard, has been part of the JR Shipping fleet since November 2009.
Thanks to her open-top hold and highest ice class, the Elysee can be deployed by container shipping lines operating in the Baltic waters throughout the year. When the Elysee was designed, the maximum permissible draught for sailing through the Kiel Canal and calling at the Baltic ports was taken into account.
