Arkon Shipping GmbH & Co. KG

AHOI   During her recent trip through the Bay of Biscay, the Wilson Flex V sailed through a magnificent rainbow. Despite not finding any gold, the experience of sailing through a rainbow was a treasure in itself. The master was able to capture this beautiful photo of the rainbow arching over our ship, painting the sky with bright colours. 

AHOI - Today marks Henning's 15th Arkon anniversary! Back in 2009, Henning started here as an operator and since then made all his way through different chartering positions in project and even handy-size business. Today Henning is focussing on chartering of coaster vessels along the Mediterranean coastlines. Cheers to you Henning and the next years to come!

AHOI - BattleKart 2024 Yesterday we got together for the 1st ARKON BattleKart contest in Dankern. After two intense rounds of 15 minutes each, our colleague Maik Töller crowned himself as the champion of ARKON 2024. Separated by just one point, Christoph Hoffmann and Michael Knue completed the podium. "I knew all these hours of Mario Karting would pay off some day!", was the short statement by Maik in the post-race interview. After an afternoon full of fun and some good food in the evening, this is something we will definitely repeat in 2025. #arkon #battlekart #dankern #gettogether #teambuilding

AHOI - flexible Flex-types   The master of our “WILSON FLEX V” sent us this stunning photo. As you can see, the vessel loaded big reels on deck and every inch was used efficiently.   Credits to cpt. Slava for sharing this great picture with us.

AHOI - A few days ago our Wilson Flex IV loaded steel coils at the Rhenus Terminal in Rotterdam. Despite the cloudy sky, everything went to plan and our vessel was able to sail as scheduled. Thanks for the smooth turnover.
